Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for February 28, 2013

That’s me right now, wow! Come on-n-n-n spring!

take me down to paradise city, where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

We’ve only had about 2 weeks of winter where I live. Such a warm winter means the bugs and soil borne pathogens will be a lot worse this summer —> more mosquitos and higher prices for local produce.

I’m ready for spring but not ready for summer’s heat.

We’ve had a mostly balmish winter in St. Petersburg (though it’s 65 and windy now – hoodie weather for us), but our daughter in Sheboygan County in WI has reported massive snowfall and gale-force winds. Semi’s are stuck or jack-knifed all over the place, emergency personnel can’t get to accidents, and people are face-planting outside and injuring themselves. We live in interesting times . . .

Yeap, everyday I check the “Deals” on Island getaways. Maybe if I could get Vici to go I’d commit!

No Jumbo, she heard you THINKING the travel section. Be careful, be ver-r-ry careful.

It’s cold up here in the Pittsburgh area. Take me to Jacksonville,Florida-my birth place.

I miss winter. Or at least, having something besides frigid temperatures and wind all winter. We used to get snow, lots of snow, here. The last few winters have been so dry not even the 9000 foot peaks have no snow on them. The 12-13K peaks only have a few inches to a foot or so, not the several feet they should haveI hate droughts!

I wonder what type of swimsuit Vicki favors?

We’ve been getting the slush too. And since Tues we discovered the roof leaks as it plopped on to my side of the bed, I so want it over! Then we can patch the roof.

Watch out, it’s a ripoff!

Vicki might like a brazen swimsuit, but Rose would keep it in her alternate reality fantasies … and only keep the simple one piece mother style … and not the bottoms only of a bikini. too bad, too …
