Good morning Sara and Lori :wub:

Gloomy gloomy here but I don't see any damage from last night :thumb:
Lot of other places not so fortunate.
Morning Dale. :wub:
I saw that on the news. :(
The storms are still marching East too. :(

Good morning Lurkers :)
Good morning OBG. :wub:
Gloomy here too, but the temps are still good. :thumbs:
Yesterday was gorgeous though.

Glad to hear you are ok Dale.

Gloomy here too. Both days dense fog in the morning, took hours for it to lift. I thought something was wrong with my contacts at first. "Oh my gosh, why can't I see anything?" :facepalm: Bwahahaha.
Good morning Sara. :wub:

Jealous of your nice weather yesterday. The temps were very nice, just wish we had had a little more sun. :)

It had been awhile since we'd seen the sun. It was definitely a welcome sight!! :nun:
Hopefully you'll get some sun soon too. :)
If it comes down to only one or the other, I'll take the milder temps every time though. :laugh:

Raining again here :rolleyes:
Think it's supposed to stop later though :unsure:
Well y'all were so dry all summer, so hopefully you'll get caught up on some needed moisture. :)

Good morning Dale, Sara, Fran, Lori, OBG and Joey! Dale, glad you made it through your storms. The rains have finally left us. The yard is still quite soft to walk around in. Now, we have very strong winds and the temps dropped significantly. You all have a great Sunday!

    Good morning Paul. :) Glad the weather has moved out for you.
    Guess I should go check our radar. We often get weather that feeds up from Texas, thru Arkansas.
    Hope you have a great Sunday too.
    I'm off to get moving...still in my pj's and robe. :rolleyes: :laugh:

    Well, it sure didn't look right. :laugh:

    ...how about we had a water bug walking across the patio night before last. :laugh: Keep forgetting to mention it.
    Crazy for late Jan.!!!
    I'd love for this mild weather to continue, but I'm afraid there's still just shy of 60 days til spring, and there's still plenty of time for winter to take back over. :(

    And that's why I want some real winter weather... the Asian beetles are going to overwhelm us as it is :eek:

    Those ARE pesky, and really destructive. :(
    We don't have anything that they really like, but they love a tree our neighbor has.
    We get a few stragglers, but not many.

    I have those pests all over in my shop. Sure makes it fun trying to keep a wet finish clean with those things wanting to crawl all over my stuff!

    I only ever get one or two in the house (Asian beetles).
    At the lake, we'd have more, but there's always more of all kinds of bugs at the lake. :laugh:

    Earlier, when I spoke, I was thinking Japanese beetle.
    So, to clarify, it's the Japanese beetle that loves a tree in our neighbors yard.

    Then I realized that wasn't what Dale was talking about.

    Yup, those ones. When I first saw them, I thought we were being overrun by ladybugs.
