Hi Chris and Holly WE are under a severe thunderstorm warning this evening. I have to say I am a bit concerned as I listened to the news. WE are supposed to get strong winds and are supposed to watch for a possible tornado warning. It so cool that you had a flyover today in CT. It is great that your state is honoring your front line workers. Love the nature pics. Can't wait until your gardens get up and growing. I got some red raspberry bushes yesterday. I can't wait to get them planted. Probably over the weekend we will plant them. Congratulations to Kayla on her graduation from high school. Even though it is virtual, at least it is some way to honor all the graduates. Have a great evening. Hugs John Debbie and Allie

Great Pics. We had our Snowbirds fly over a few days ago. Such a great sight/feeling. We have lost soo much. Nice to have that appreciation in the community! Congrats to Kayla. All grown up. Hugs!

Great pics, did you take them? What grade is Kayla graduating from? It's so hard this year and I feel badly for all the graduates who are not experiencing all those special moments associated with graduation time. Proms, and of course a regular ceremony. So many schools have to improvise. I hope you have a great evening. what is on tap for Baking Fri?
