Nice work Milt. Here in UK it’s been about 80f (25C) today. Too damned hot for gardening... guess what I was doing. Terry

Thanks for your read, Terry. I have absolutely no idea, but at 80 degree f. I can only hope you were in a swimming pool! Have a fine week, Terry.

Yes, we do. I think most of us are really tired of Ol' Man Winter!

An absolutely amazing haiku Milton. Despite what our objective is, we hope for something brighter. The quest for something else is what inspires us to start moving forward.

The hope of a better tomorrow, no matter what we hope for! The anticipation of something better is what makes us keep going! Excellent, dearest, L MILTON. Blessings.

I am looking forward to the nip giving way to warmer climate, and maybe with a little luck we can all do away with all our masks, :) and smile again.

Oh, me too, Vie. It would be so nice to return to normal in all respects. The past year has been difficult for all of us.

Isn’t that something? Perhaps snow in July? Who knows!

OMG, I certainly hope not. I'm so tired of cold weather!
