Into April (April 10, 2022)

Beautiful Spring day, and took these photos in Dayton. All sorts of things going on there, including a baseball game (between Dayton and Ft. Wayne) ..the dogwoods (and probably some Bradford Pear Trees) are all in glorious bloom. It was warm, the skies were cloudless, a nice change from the past few weeks. Spring is coming, but does not seem to be in any sort of hurry. Still, it was t-short weather here, and did see a number of motorcycles out. Though in a change from the last three years here, mine is still waiting for better weather. The forecast for the next few days is looking really damp. That said, it's looking a lot like Spring. 

 

Inbetween the Seasons (April 2, 2022)

Up early on a rare of late sunny day. Usually, I would be into the motorcycle season but not this year. A combination of rain, cold and even some snow flurries during the last few weeks have delayed it this year. Getting ready won't take long, as I have done some work on the bike, but waiting for nicer days. Expecting rain virtually all this week. Crops will like it though I would imagine. 

Did get out to New Carlisle this morning for the Krispy Creme doughnut run, and visited with the birds around the lake. Beautiful day in the 50's later today. We have even had some 70's but only for very short periods. Hurry up Spring!   

 

Spring 2020 (Day 1) (March 20, 2022)

Yeah, its officially underway. Got out for a while, this fellow was resting in my yard while I was doing some work on my motorcycle to get it ready for the 2020 Riding Season here in Central Ohio. He was out watching me for a long time on what was a very sunny and warm day. The first full day of Spring will be even warmer. Getting out with my wife to enjoy some 70's temperatures on this Monday (the first full day of Spring). Winter was nice but looking forward to the upcoming season. 

Looking forward as always to the adventures to come, and we have some fine ones ahead!   
 

The Return of Winter (March 11, 2022)

A surprise of sorts, as it is still not officially Spring (which is a few days away) got a bit of Winter Wonderland this afternoon here in Central Ohio. A big late Winter storm came rolling in to the area and is dropping snow as I write this. 

As of yet, it is not sticking to roads for it has been warm here (in the 50's and 60's) the past few days here. For that matter, by Monday will be that temperature once again, so this is expected to be a short term event lasting through tomorrow.

That said, it is very beautiful and I do enjoy watching the snow fall.   

 

Visit to Rising Sun Indiana (March 5, 2022)

Spent 24 hours with Debbie at Rising Sun, Indiana, which is a favorite place of ours. Got a few photos while we were there, and certainly is a fun place to go. 

Bunny photo was taken during the morning walk this morning. First bunny photo of 2022, I am quite fond of rabbits and have quite a few around here, though have not see them of late. Did see the Indiana bunny this morning. 

I also gave a "Salute" to the former President, and friend of Putin.  

 

Touch of Spring (February 21, 2022)

On a Monday, got 60 degree temperatures and with my wife took a long drive (just under 100 miles) around Ohio. Saw a few sights and enjoyed the wonderful weather. Unfortunately, winter will be returning for a few days. Its that up and down time of year, but Spring is not far away and looking forward to it. 

 

A visit to Rising Sun Indiana (February 15-16, 2021)

A funny thing happened this week, Spring made an appearance for the first time this year. Went to one of our favorite places. Some different sights for your viewing pleasure. Aurora, Indiana at left, a barge on the Ohio River, and Sunset at Rising Sun.

Below that moon and reflection on the Ohio River. The Groundhog was through the hotel window. The Guitars were at Guitar Center on the way home. It was a fantastic trip and we had a wonderful time, which is usual when I get out on adventures with my wonderful wife.
