TOUCHSTONE Ay, now am I in Arden, the more fool I.
When I was at home I was in a better place, but
travelers must be content.

ROSALIND Ay, be so, good Touchstone.

Set your clock back an hour, you'll get a extra hour of sleep tonight, they said.

First tornado warning siren went off around 1:30 am, and we've been up since then.

We've had some rain since yesterday.

I went to check my rain gauge & at first I couldn't find the water level: out of habit I was looking near the bottom of the gauge 😳

Sumer is icumen in,
Lhude sing Goddamm,
Raineth stop and staineth not,
And now the wind hath scram'd!
Sing: Goddamm!

A veces, cuando me siento deprimido, escucho una de esas maníacas piezas de guitarra de Leo Kottke. Cuando mis pies empiezan a repiquetear, estoy listo para volver a sonreír.  El Sr. Kottke rara vez me decepciona.

Primavera en nuestro jardín trasero, central Oklahoma.

Tenemos cinco árboles en el jardín: roble rojo, tilo, morera, cereza de laurel de carolina, y asimina.

Todos los árboles están brotando ahora, excepto la asimina. Este árbol produce flores primero, y luego sus hojas.  Vea la foto de abajo:
