May 22nd

Happy Birthday to my friend Carrie Lofty, author of "What a Scoundrel Wants." A tale of Robin Hood's Will Scarlet and his lady love.

It's Friday! A front came through last night and turned all the leaves over on the trees. It grew dark and the air chilled by 20 degrees F. But no rain, just wind and dark clouds. Today is more like normal. The sunlight shines weakly through the window. Dark clouds gust about on cool winds. The lake is a deep silver and ripples in active dancing waves that sparkle in the sun that fights its way through the clouds. It is a good start to a long weekend. Have a great holiday everyone!
