took the picture last night while out for a walk
I thought about playing some golf today. Living up to its forecast, it is warm out and getting warmer. 67° as I type creates a desire to be outside and enjoying the day. However, typical Kansas weather, winds are out of the South at 22mph with gusts into the low 30's.
ok time to get moving
We're under a high heat warning, with temperatures expected to soar into the 100s. They're saying records will likely be broken.
Again.
Again.
Yeah, I know, but it's nowhere close to as weird as triple-digits in JANUARY! When my first grandson was here for his first birthday, we hit 105 (IIRC)--and we have pictures of him stark naked playing in the backyard in the water, carrying around a hose. The kind of pictures that he--now, as a young teenager--would DIE if he knew about!Triple digit highs.... April 6th.... simply does not compute.
Yep, full frontal...the whole works...Totally off the weather topic: pictures like that, which I have on various hard drives, I've wondered if some over-zealous person--thinking they've found child pornography--could turn me in if they happened to see them. (Yes, it's extremely unlikely that *I* would ever be in that kind of scenario, since I do my own repairs and hard drive replacements, and on the rare occasions when I have to physically ship a laptop in (like for a screen replacement under warranty), I remove its hard drives before shipping.) When my grandsons, now two of them and about 4 and 6 years old, were visiting one time and were staying at a hotel by Disneyland, the older one came out of the shower with no clothes on. I was busily snapping away--you know snap! snap! snap!--action shots of the younger one bouncing on the bed and doing various other antics. My view was moving with him, only paying attention to him. I never knew until way later that a couple of those shots captured the older one in all his naked glory. Can you imagine what some over-zealous do-gooder could make of that?!
And, just for clarity, I'm ALL FOR turning in pedophiles. Absolutely. I think they're the scum of the earth. But *I* am not a pedophile. These were innocent pictures, snapped by his mother and grandmother, for no other purpose but to document a fun time.
Look at the high:
Yesterday it was very windy here with lots of sun and warm temps.
It actually got into the mid eighties and if not for the wind it would have seemed quite hot. A front moved across during the night and it's now 38° and falling with SNOW forecasted around noon. Crazy

It is one of those rare Kansas days today. Big blue sky with temps in the upper seventies. The wind is near non existent at 4mph. I cleaned up a yard I've mowed for many years this morning. The children had to put my client in a nursing facility. Then, with nothing better to do, I had to go play some golf. One needs to get out and enjoy weather like today for it is a rare bird in my neck of the woods.

https://www.wunderground.com/hourly/us/il/champaign It was raining earlier today but the sun sparkled through. Everything feels alrigh..
We had some exciting weather in South central Kansas last night. A tornado hit the city of Andover that's just North East of where I live.
Property damage, trees downed, power outages, but fortunately no fatalities. All that happened here was wind, rain, and small hail.
Thirty one years and three days ago, Andover experienced a F5 tornado that killed seventeen and injured over two hundred. The devastation was incredible.

It was beautiful here today. Temps started out in the high forties and warmed into the mid seventies. With no wind my son and I played a round of golf. It was a great day to be outside.
No sun Monday. It rained off and on all day. It only rained hard for a few minutes but sprinkled to light rain all day. Just under an inch fell in total. We need the rain but it makes it difficult to work outside.
It rained all day and it is supposed to rain all day tomorrow. 1.65" fell between midnight Tuesday and midnight tonight. That brings the week total to 2.60". It has been dry here this year so the rain is welcome. I just wish it wouldn't all fall in one week.
It was misty or raining again all day today. An additional .58" fell bringing the week total to 3.18". It's supposed to be nice tomorrow so I'll be playing catch up on my mowing. I'm behind by 14 lawns.

A bit breezy and cold in the beginning of today, but later on it shot up to seventy degrees.
