What Happened To Spring?
It has been raining for about a week now. I will be honest and say there were a couple of sunny days. For the most part it rains.
Today is heavy rain and a lot of wind. I had to go into Sioux City to pick up groceries. The wind made driving difficult.
It was not cold enough to freeze though. When I was coming out of the store I noticed that the water on the paving in the parking lot was thicker and slippery.
When I went to get into my truck I opened the door. When I went to step in to sit down the wind almost blew my feet from under me.
Things are supposed to calm down by tomorrow. My sister-in-law winters in Texas every year and she finally came back last week.
We are meeting at the cemetery tomorrow (weather permitting) to get things looking nice before Memorial Day. We go to three cemeteries evey year. Then we go to lunch and catch up on family news.

Sometimes spring just slips into summer. And I mean "slips" because of all the rain.
ReplyDeleteRain is my favorite weather but I do like a little break now and then.
DeleteIt is so cold here, Emma, I have on my winter hoodie. A fleece lined Carhartt. At least the rain isn't getting thick!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it will be warmer next week?
DeleteIt is surely not cold in the next state we're heading to, TN, where friends today told us it's already in the 90s. We expected that we would be hitting those temps soon and especially the closer we get to FL. It's definitely not my favorite type of weather. That said, Emma, I hope that you do get some drier and warmer weather in Iowa soon.
ReplyDeleteI lived in Tennessee tor a few years. It is a great place.
