Lotsa Rain Today...

Athena & The Tiger Lilies

Athena checks out the new growth on the southwest side of the house yesterday. Soon we'll be seeing some tiger lilies.

What's This Bullhooey?

April snow. Notice Dale about to open the back door. It snowed 8 inches almost two weeks ago. I'm glad we were in Mazatlan and missed it. This is small potatoes compared to that.

Lunar Eclipse April 14, 2014

The following is from Wikipedia:

"A total lunar eclipse took place on April 15, 2014. It is the former of two total lunar eclipses in 2014, and the first in a tetrad (four total lunar eclipses in series). Subsequent eclipses in the tetrad are those of October 8, 2014, April 4, 2015, and September 28, 2015."

Full Moon April 2014

Full moon today which occurred quite early this morning. I read that there was a lunar eclipse that made the sun appear red. To early for me to get up.

First 70 Degree Day

They say it's been 6 months since the last 70 degree day. Today felt glorious.  I even got a little yard pick-up done.
