3 Stormy Spring Sundays...

The past 3 Sundays have been stormy like this. Last Saturday was 65 degrees, then in the night the snow....then it has been snow every other day. The meadows are brown when it melts, so all but a few snow drifts are gone. I print my blog into a book each year, so need to record the weather. It is interesting to compare the weather to past years. Often by afternoon, it is beginning to melt.

Our ship through the open side of a "pirate ship". There were lots of pretty flowers everywhere.

Sunset. Your have to hurry as it drops out of sight in a flash.


They changed the rug in the floor of the elevators every day so people could remember what day it was.



Blue, blue water!




I thought this was cute.
