Here in Seattle it’s just a normal week:

My apologies, it's the South West shore. We always call it the North Coast around here and I typed before coming fully awake.The northwest shore of Lake Erie is a touch chilly right now but it's supposed to warm into the 50s in a few days.
It was awesome on New Orleans last week. Perfect weather for my daughters wedding.
73f inside, high so far today of 41f outside. I came in soaked with sweat from mowing and bagging the leaves. Did not use a the rake at all, just the bagger on the mower. Push mower, (self propelled), but still enough for an old guy. Probably have to do it all over again as there are still leaves on the neighbors trees. I did use the leaf blower to blow a lot of the leaves back over to their yard. Ha!Seventy five degrees
That is what i think happened to Rand Paul. All the leaves he had piled up were blowing into his neighbor's yard. Neighbor becomes enraged and attacks, i have heard it happens.
I hadn't thought of that. Guy across the street is heavily armed. Woops. I'll blame it on his next door neighbor.That is what i think happened to Rand Paul. All the leaves he had piled up were blowing into his neighbor's yard. Neighbor becomes enraged and attacks, i have heard it happens.
Ugh. Dealing with leaves after the snow melts is not fun. Soaking wet.Snowed two inches last night in a white out storm up here at the lake house. Melted a little today with 34 degrees. Now 21 degrees. Our final pass at the leaves will likely have to wait until Spring. Got nothing done we planned to do thanks to snow. Craptastic.
First page had a handwritten note from Queen Victoria thanking the women of Wales for a Bust of her husband... Followed by notes by an unknown guy, reporting while traveling worldwide on the situation of Barings Bank - which was going through a bust (and bail-out) due to Argentinian bonds.
Wouldn't know how to market it...Might earn you a few Euros.

"The Great Blizzard of 1891" (can do a Google Image search). South of England under up to 20 feet of snow in March, clogging chimneys, trapping and killing hundreds of people and thousands of livestock, stopping all communications for days, dozens of boats sunk. Why do I mention this?
On a sidewalk of Paris, among other thrown-away books in a pile, I came upon a leatherbound hardback diary... looked old. Picked it up. First page had a handwritten note from Queen Victoria thanking the women of Wales for a Bust of her husband... Followed by notes by an unknown guy, reporting while traveling worldwide on the situation of Barings Bank - which was going through a bust (and bail-out) due to Argentinian bonds. The end is full of newspaper clippings from the 1890's. Among which, an article about a blizzard in Calais (French port across from Dover on the Channel), where locomotives were derailed and covered with snow, in a way cold hurricane-blizzard.
Did some follow-up searches, and here's a sample.

I don't need the thing, but some researcher might be overjoyed. Been thinking of dropping it off at the British Consulate... for some "archive".
I was lying
