Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for May 29, 2011

love the expression on Val’s face in the last panel.

I know of a few lakes where the summer folks sit on thier back porches and watch the ice berg melt.

\\//_

Having read this comic, I ask you this: Has it thawed out anyplace in U. S. where you are?

There was still snow on the ground in many parts of VT in late April, but the ice on the lake is long gone.

I drive by a lake everyday to pt job not really interested.

Calvin and Hobbes did this exact thing some 20 years ago.

I’ve been knee deep in my pool a few times already this year- but water temperature= average nighttime low. It’s up to low 70s now.

Noveltman- just about every family strip always uses some variation every year- the point is how well it is done with the particular characters!

9 Chickweed Lane runs something like this at least yearly.

Thanks for your responses. Here in north GA, it’s gets a little nippy mornings and sizzling afternoons and evenings. We had rain (as predicted) this past Thursday. Further down southeast Georgia, it’s always sunny. From my birthplace (Savannah, GA) to Woodbine, GA.

Here in KS yesterday was very pleasant on temps 68°. Today breezy and above 82° high to be 86°. Your welcome Husky 51. I obtain pictures from photobucket.

fbjsr, if you have been to canyon lake….you have been freezing. that water is still cold!

Funny how a “Wooo” turned into a “Hooo”!

Miami Beach- Hip Hop Happenin

Fern Ridge Reservoir, and yes Alix, it’s cold! Wait until July, it’ll be nicer. :-)(Hi Jan! from Queen Carmen!)

Notice even Biscuit was too smart to be the Guinea pig!

Weather in Alberta….(Canada) today it is suppose to be 63F and next Saturday is scheduled to be 69F. (17C & 21C)

In Dec. 1999 I jumped into an outside pool in Thousand Oaks Cal. and my response was just like Alix’s. This Canuck thought that all pools are heated, especially outdoor ones in December. Hubby got quite the laugh because people came out of their rooms to see who had been attacked!

Yeah, we’ve already been up over 100 in central Texas and the lake temp is in the high 70’s. But I do remember cold lakes in NH in the summer, lived there a few years.
