Folks,

Fittop:

A cold rain persists here. The darkened sky looks like there should be four inches of snow on the ground. Actually there is. Only it is the transparent, unfrozen, variety of snow. Some rivers are rising above flood stage. The current temp is 44° F.

Global warming affects us in so many ways. Isn't there more dirt on the ground than usual? I think I just saw a fish swim by the window.

Thanks so much for the text. Feb. is always a tough month both weather wise, and in my case, emotionally. It is easy to get depressed in February. Of course depression should be thought of as a storm. Difficult for a time but not lasting forever. The sun eventually comes out once more and the dark clouds blow away. At least it always has been so for me.

And yes, the sun does seem brightest after an especially dark night. Or sparkling high above a colorful rainbow just after a glistening spring shower. Memories of such wonderful things can lift our sagging spirits. The older we are, the more precious these stored up memories become.
