The Dog Days of Winter

Northerners?  Prepare yourselves.  I’m about to brag to all of you who are still buried under a couple of feet of snow and donning your boots, mittens, and chapped lips.  Do you see this?

I took this picture today of a blossom on our Okame Cherry tree.  A blossom!  On a cherry tree!  In February!  It’s hard to contain the excitement, people.

I must also boast about the fact that it was 70 degrees today here in Georgia—meaning that it was way too nice to be cooped up inside the house watching reruns of Leave it to Beaver.  Not that I would do that or anything, but there is a LITB marathon on TV Land at the moment and GR is deeply engrossed.  Anyhow, it was so beautiful outside that I took some time to throw the tennis ball to my poor, deprived brat-dog, Bindi…

Oh, that Bindi Sue.  She’s a dear.  And poor Billy Ray, he just sat perched on the deck watching the action below.

Oh, that Billy Ray.  He’s a fun-loving thing…as long as the fun-loving involves a treat and a nap.  Or reading Meghan’s blog, A Mom of Two Boys

Anyhow, I’m sure that the fates are laughing at me right now, and Georgia will end up with a foot of snow at some point in March.  Oh, well.  At least I had today…

Had it not been in the high 60s here for a couple of days, I would totally have to come down there and…and…admire your lovely blossom with you. And throw the ball for that poor, pitiful dog that no one will play with. But since we’ve had some lovely weather, I won’t have to do any of that.

However, they are calling for it to be 67 on Tuesday and possibly snow on Wednesday. Beat that, will ya? :neutral:
