Moon

Wow the Moon sure is bright!!! Be sure you get to see it!! any time from now until April 9th when it will be full. Here is a picture of it. I took it through the new telescope dad bought us.
I'm taking pictures of the weather station so you can see what it looks like:) I will try to post a post about the telescope too. So go outside in the evenings and soak up some Moon light, because there will be a lot of it!!!!!!

Spring is here!!!

This is a jumping spider.

This is a honey bee.

This is the willow tree.

It is spring all right. The leaves on the trees are come out. The spring storms are here. and lots of bugs are out. There is a lot of flower at this place. And right now there is lots of them blooming. The lilac bushes are about to bloom. The Moon is in the evening sky now. Right now it looks like a big smile. But it does not have any eyes or any nose:( Good Bye for now!!!!

Snow:(

Well we did not get 2 to 5 inches like the NWS was forecasting:( Later they downed the snow accumulation to 1 inch. But we did not even get 1 inch:( All we got was a very light dusting on some grass and elevated surfaces. Maybe some time I will post some pictures of it.

Update

Well, we have not gotten any snow yet:( But it did sleet for a bit. It will melt because it is above freezing. The NWS is still forecasting 2 to 5 inches of snow mainly for to night. Stay tuned for more updates!!!!

Snow!!!!

One to Four inches of snow are possible on Saturday( for us)!!! More snow would be possible (like four to eight inches)but warm ground temperatures and the high sun angle will limit the snow accumulation. Right now the Temperature is 36ºF and dropping. The NWS is forecasting 42ºF for a high today. So Maybe the rain will turn over to snow earlier then the NWS is forecasting?? Stay tuned for updates!!!

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS

Severe thunderstorms are possible today and tonight.

Story.

John was leaning over the rail clutching Josh's two feet.
"What in the world are you doing?" gasped Chad.
"Josh is trying to get his hat he dropped over the rail," John hollered over his shoulder.
Just then John yelled, "Josh I'm losing my grip!"
Josh screamed and struggled for help.
"Stop kicking!" cried John. "I'm about ready to drop you!".
But Josh didn't stop struggling so John lost his grip and Josh plunged into the water with a splash. Chad, James and Jenny threw a live saver to Josh, and after a big struggle they pulled Josh to safety. All this time John stood stock still with apprehension.
At once, Josh was on deck. He went to take a long nap, But all of the others went to eat a big dinner.

THE END

Now this story is not as good as jenny's stories. I LOVE Jenny's stories.
