I thought the kids and I would take a nice ride. Drive by the light house, go through Pet's (if they let us), drive by the fish hatchary. Any other thoughts of some sites in Racine we can drive by? It's going to be muddy so not much running around but anything to get them out of my house for awhile!
Don't bother driving down by Pershing Park behind Gateway. I live near there and often enjoy the view of the lake, but it's obscured now by the mountains of dirty snow trucked in from the city's parking areas.
ReplyDeleteWe need the thaw, at least psychologically. But you're right about it being a mess. The melting snow reveals all the dirt and garbage. I'm going to try to clean up some of the peanut shells from what I've been feeding the squirrels this winter.
I opened a window to get some of that fresh air. I live near our apartment building's laundry room. The wind is wafting the aroma of fabric softener dryer sheets into my apartment. Ahhh, sickeningly sweet chemical fragrances....
ReplyDeletePoor ORBS you can't win for loosing.........My kids haven't been able to play outside in awhile they'll both be hanging out the car windows like dogs! I'll pick ya up ORBS I have 1 extra window for you to hang out! I'll drive by the bakery for ya!
ReplyDeleteI got to run a few errands. Think I'll take my kid out for breakfast. Go to Barnes & Noble to get some books. I dunno,anything's up in the air.
ReplyDeleteDrew maybe I'll meet ya at the book store..I already made french toast for breakfest so we're all good and full. I'm thinking about getting going around 1 or 2.
ReplyDeleteWoof! Woof!
ReplyDeleteMy cat is running around the apartment like crazy. He loves the fresh air.
ReplyDeleteSounds cool to me, Abby. Give me a call.
ReplyDeleteBoy has everyone got cabin fever? I'm looking out the window and some nut's washing his car in a t-shirt! Maybe we'll just ride around and count how many people think it's summer with out coats on...........
ReplyDeleteI thought about getting the truck washed yesterday, but then I thought, "No, the melting snow and ice is going to make a mess."
ReplyDeleteThe mailman just came and was in short shirt sleeves only, no coat!
ReplyDeleteI stood out in the sun for a little bit today, trying to soak up some vitamin D. I saw a news article that rickets were actually making a comeback in the great white north... Gee... actually, the sun felt nice but it was still cool without a coat.
ReplyDeleteI had on my winter jacket, which was too warm, but you did need something on. It was great. A psychological boost for the people. We needed that.
ReplyDelete56 degrees on Tuesday?????? Am I dreaming?
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's what NWS is saying at this point. Hope we don't have any prolonged warm spells just yet, otherwise some plants and trees get fooled into budding, and then nipped by frost.
