the SUN--Finally

an all day sunny blue sky kinda day--FINALLY..after a weeks worth of rain it was nice to see blue sunny skies once again.... thought it was over yesterday morning with the sun shining all morning.. then the clouds moved in for some more rain

Knockout Roses

Sunny at the Lake

still raining..4 days of this

s#!+..same forecast thru Monday then hopefully a couple of sunny days..don't need no more stinkin' rain... arrrrggghhh :(  ..the sun surprisingly popped thru the clouds a lil' while ago just in time for a sunset.. at least some Knockout Roses and other flowers bloomed with all this standing water we have lying around..

ahhh..a lil' bit of the sun peeked out

enuff with the rain and clouds already...already

heavy ominous looking clouds in the area but a drive to the beach and lake was in order anyway..  tried wetting a line at the lake.. zippo.. nada.. squadoosh.. as I left for the drive home the skies opened up...  forecast is for more and more again thru the weekend... not nice

Sunrise..Lake..and back yard Azaleas

a nice early morning.. tried my luck wetting a line at the lake once again.. just 3 hits--no takers..the Azaleas are late blooming this year with all the frost and rain we've had..  75* and mostly sunny.. overall a nice day with some late clouds moving in..as we spent the day shopping on our usual Sunday shopping trek down to Myrtle Beach -- Costco and Bass Pro Shops
