Spring is here–for two days

It’s been interesting weather here for a while, and from what I hear, all over the country. We’ve had flooding like I’ve never seen before. Our average rainfall for a year is 49-55 inches. Saturday alone, we got 17+ inches.

The city of Kingston had a boat slip docked at 58 Landing (a boat launch area and walking path along the Watts Bar Lake and Highway 58 in the town.) It came loose and floated away a few miles. It’s back today, but they’re still anchoring it. The water looks like thin mud full of trash, trees, and branches. The water level of the lake is usually very low in Winter, but it’s now more full than in Summer.

It has been a very strange season. The weather was cold last week, but for the last two days, it’s been in the 60s and 70s. It’s supposed to be cold again next week.

On a lighter note, my phalaenopsis orchids are still blooming. Three are in bloom and two more are on the way. My white one is winding down, but another pink one is blooming.

And to end my blog today, a comical view of my grandson. Kids do the weirdest things.
