Strange Weather

I finally got the lawn mowed today. It was the first time this year, not that it didn't need it before today. The weather has been so strange lately... hot, cold, dry, rainy... C'mon Mother Nature, make up your mind!

It's a great example of the good ol' Minnesota adage, "If you like the weather, just wait five minutes."

So, now I have to try to find time to mow the back yard before it turns into a tropical jungle. The dog is still digging up the yard within the reach of her tie-out, and has found that she can get under the pine tree in the back yard to dig without being seen. What she does not seem to understand is that the dirty claws pretty much give her away.

But here are the two main reasons I want the weather to equalize:

  • I want to use the hammock more often
  • If I hope to replace the deck, good weather would be most helpful

Springtime in Minnesota can be unpredictable, but it's undeniably beautiful outside right now. I think I'll stop typing and get out there and enjoy it while it lasts.
