I have a story for you. Wednesday we traveled back from vacation in Canada, and of course no food in the house. Went to the store, and while there noticed that the diamond from my wedding ring (34 years Sunday) was GONE.
7:57 am

ouch!
7:58 am

Yesterday, catching up on laundry, I looked into the washing machine AND THERE WAS MY DIAMOND! Didn't even compute. Thought it was a rhinestone from something of my daughters'. Oh happy day!

Drizzle on day 1, with thunder, but otherwise wonderful weather. In fact, too hot--90+ on 2 days.
8:20 am

we have one day of thunder, but I was, luckily, in side!
8:21 am

I've been in the Shenendoah, though not on the trail itself... gorgeous views
8:21 am

Yes, Harry, on Monday night, I think. We were driving out of the park when the storm began. Power was out in town. Then at dinner all of our phones screamed with tornado alerts from the Weather Channel.

8:22 am
Trifioso

wow, that sounds rather scary!
8:23 am
Scrabbler

Natasha, it was cooler in the woods, but in open areas it was hot. I thought I was going to have heat exhaustion on the ascent up Loft Mtn last Friday. So I stopped after 6.4 miles and let the other 3 continue for another 3.5 miles. They picked me up 2 hours later, but I got to watch mama bear with her yearling twins.
8:23 am
Scrabbler

Many trees and branches were damaged from the storm.
8:23 am

The bears were to the right of the trail at Ivy Creek Overlook, maybe 75 feet. Hikers walked past them and many folks took photos. I warned all approaching hikers.

I went up on the trail and took photos. Mama had been lying down while the twins played. Then Mama got up on all 4's and hissed at me. I thought I was going to die and ran off the trail back to the overlook. Mama didn't follow. I about creamed my pants.

Waiting*
4:37 pm

what book zooz?
4:38 pm
zoozzoom

Best British Short Stories 2017
4:39 pm
zoozzoom

I have had to resort back to a 6 volume series by Marcel Proust who I am finding a very hard read.
4:39 pm
zoozzoom

I finieshed one book and nearly through the second one but man it is reall a struggle.
4:40 pm
TraderKate

Proust can be a bit of a slog... I'd rather reread something I enjoyed if hard-pressed for reading material. Will the book possibly arrive tomorrow, or will it not come until MOnday now?
4:41 pm
TraderKate

The Short stories sounds nice for bedtime reading.
4:41 pm
zoozzoom

I am hoping it will arrive tomorrow as they said it has been despatched. From amazon.
4:42 pm
zoozzoom

Nah I will read the Proust books eventually. Will only read them as a last resort though. they cost me nearly £90 for them so will get through them at some point LOL
4:42 pm
TraderKate

ah... at least you will be able to put Proust away after today ;)
4:43 pm
zoozzoom

Yes they are, TK.I have read three other big bound short story books already. Love them!
4:43 pm

haha... you're going to get your money's worth out of those books if it kills you!
4:43 pm

Damn right I will :-)
4:43 pm

How is your weather now, Warmer?
4:44 pm
TraderKate

ROFL :D
can you get your hands on the back years of the anthlogies? Have they been publishing them for ages?
4:45 pm
zoozzoom

So far yes. But saying that have only seen some back as around 2012
4:45 pm
zoozzoom

Not found any repeat stories either!
4:46 pm
TraderKate

Yes! finally warmer here. yesterday it got up to 30+ here yesterday...hotter than normal, but not complaining after the horrid winter we endured. trees have started to leaf, but many are still in bud.
4:47 pm
TraderKate

Do you have a little used book store there zooz? Maybe it's time to peruse the aisles on a rainy day
4:47 pm
zoozzoom

The trees here are leafing much later than normal too. Maybe we will get an extended Summer to make up for the crap Winter!
4:47 pm
TraderKate

(and the non-existent summer from last year too) Mother Nature has a lot to atone for :)
4:48 pm
TraderKate

our forsythia is in full bloom the daffys and tulips are in bloom, lilaces are barely in bud-showing some colour, but it will be a while before they bloom
4:49 pm
TraderKate

dandelions are in full bloom though, so the bees are happy
4:49 pm
zoozzoom

There are plenty here! But never really know what i want when in them lol
4:50 pm
zoozzoom

Hah dandelions seem to flower no matter what the weather does!
4:50 pm
TraderKate

:)
must put up with the bees - we depend on them for so much
4:50 pm
zoozzoom

I don't mind bees at all.
4:51 pm
TraderKate

they are very hardy - up with the crocus and last to go dormant...I've seen them bloom in snow!
4:51 pm
zoozzoom

Many people flap their arms when bees are around...But I just let them bee.
4:51 pm
zoozzoom

:-)
4:52 pm
TraderKate

we have wasps here, I think there's a nest in the roof somewhere. That will have to be tended to as they somehow find their way into my apartment, so I am constantly having to escort them back outside!
4:52 pm
TraderKate

arm flapping is a good way to get yourself stung.. I am not a flapper ;)
4:53 pm
zoozzoom

What purpose do wasps have apart from being annoying!
4:54 pm
TraderKate

they eat dead insects, so they must do something - I could do without them as well... especially in "silly season" when they sting for no reason at the summer's end..ornery critters!
4:55 pm
zoozzoom

Well thank you for the chat, TK I am going to endure a few pages of Proust and then slip into zzzzz land! Hope you have a great evening when it gets to you, TK :-)
4:56 pm
TraderKate

I want to strangle my landlord... he did the first grass mowing of the year a few days ago and ran right over a beautiful clump of daffys in full bloom... he should just pave over the entire yard. He doesn't like animals or birds and doesn't like most fowers. He's an odd duck.
