Startling development

We had a sunrise this morning.  No fog.  I'd forgotten what one looks like.

Prediction of thunderstorms later, so we return to our regularly-scheduled weather.

Thursday no-roadkill report

Not even dessicated corpses or notable blood spots on the pavement.  Municipal tidiness can go too far.  (The lack of blood may only reflect rainfall, of course.)

Warm, not as damp, little wind.  Milkweed now blossoming.

All of Younger Son's stuff has been sorted and the dining room and living room retrieved.  Just as long as he doesn't ask us to find any particular item, we're good.
