January’s freezing temperatures thawed like icicles dripping off a roof...slowly. February and March were dry and windy blowing the remnants of the dead leaves off the trees…not at all like southeast Texas winters. April showers did not happen, a drought gripped Texas. May flowers only occurred after much watering…so the months dissolved into one another with no clear arrival of spring.Dreary as that may sound there were many crisp and crystal clear days to enjoy, no one wanted to rush the heat of summer. The tomatoes plants seemed to thrive with the cool weather, the grass lush and green, and the catfish off the dock were plentiful…so it is hard to complain (too much).
Today we are watching another line of thunderstorms headed toward southeast Texas, hoping that “this” line will hold together. Lately these lines tease us…roaring toward us we store the lawn furniture and loose items…only to have them “fizzle” out just before arriving….like I said “teasing” us!
Maybe today?
