Outside My Window ~ 10.13.2013
Outside my window…is yet another cloudy and rainy day. The rainfall pattern goes from drizzle to pouring rain to light rain to drizzle….rinse and repeat….for the 7th straight day. We did need the moisture but this has been a bit of over kill in that department. I read on Friday that we had received 4 to 6 inches of rainfall in our area…I would add about another inch and a half to that for Friday night, all day Saturday and this morning. I don’t know which end of the spectrum we are on but I will say that I had pulled the level down in my water barrels to about half before this storm and…

Outside My Window ~ 11.25.2012
Outside my window..is a beautiful albeit chilly day. We had blue skies, sunshine and very brisk temperatures today. During my first dog walk at 7:45 this morning, it was 28°F….four hours later it was 39°F. Fortunately the winds are calm, unlike yesterday. I don’t believe it was this chilly, but it was cold….and windy. Our forecast high today was 47°F. Tonight will be chilly once again at 33°F. If you are to believe the forecast it looks as if Monday will be our warmest day at 58°F, the rest of the week will be much like today….easing into winter it appears. I don’t mind a few good hard frosts to…

What I See
Yesterday was quite foggy in Hampton Roads….when I left my house it was really dense….almost too dense. The fog lightened up quite a bit the closer I got to Williamsburg and I got an idea. I travel down the Colonial Parkway during the last leg of my drive to work. It is always a beautiful drive but one of the things I love about the parkway is the fact there are no traffic lights and I can count on one hand the number of cars I see on my way to work each morning. I carry my point and shoot camera with me so I decided to take a couple…

Outside My Window ~ 10.2.2011
Outside my window…is a dark and cloudy night {I love it when I can write that 🙂 } …and it is cold. Well, not freezing cold, but compared to what we have been experiencing lately…it is cold. And it feels good too. Currently at 8:45 p.m. we are at 54°F and a forecast low of 46°F is expected for the evening. Our high tomorrow is set for 61°F with a few showers and another chilly evening with a low of 47°F. The rest of this week will be pretty much the same until it finally warms up to 76°F on Saturday. My youngest told me yesterday she is not ready…

It Happens
There was going to be another image here tonight. I had planned a sunset. Download images…open PSE7. Ready…wait…what? Photoshop Elements wasn’t cooperating. Crash….burn. Un-install. Reinstall. It happens. 😐

Outside My Window ~ 10.3.10
Outside My Window…is cloudy, wet and cool. We are currently at 63ºF at 7:00 this evening. The temperature hasn’t varied too much today from our current temp….there has been light rain falling all day on and off. This is my definition of typical fall weather. The trees in my neighborhood are beginning to turn ~ especially the dogwood trees. Rain is forecast for Monday with it clearing off in the evening. Our temperatures are going to stay in the mid sixties to seventy degrees during the day and lows in the mid to upper 50’s in the evenings this week. I’m not complaining…just wish the earlier storm hadn’t revealed the roof leak again. …
