Wednesday afternoon was sunny, but that was just about it. Every other day involved rain and gloom, with several thunderstorms and … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up

Spring is utterly unpredictable and likes to throw tornadoes and hailstorms at us when the temperature isn't jumping from summer-like to … Continue reading September Summary and October Preview
