Let it ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️!!

 6:44 am - Tuesday - April 18th - LPG&RVR - 25° F, humidity 85%, wind 5 mph out of the northwest....heavy cloud cover this morning, and it snowed all night, and is snowing right now as I write......↴






....on this date in  2013 TLE and I were walking around the National Mall in Washington D.C......

Smithsonian Castle

Grant's Tomb

Jefferson Memorial

If you believe the weather guessers Monday was to be the last Spring like day for 4, or 5 days, and at least it was as guessed.  Tuesday, on the other hand, if the guessers are correct, promises to be cold and snowy, and by cold I mean sub 30° F cold.  I entertained myself Monday in the trailer most of the morning pulling our three bicycles out of their travel positions, setting them up for use, then setting up my exercise bench, Black & Decker Workmate, bench grinder, various socket wrenches, and their assorted sockets, of which there are many, etc. By 12 pm I was about 99% finished with the trailer interior....all that remains is to deploy my bike stand, and tune up the bikes.....


.....around 1 pm TLE and I drove our golf cart over to the Clubhouse for our first lunch of 2023 at The Café.  The special of the day was a Chili Cheese Burger with fries, and that was my choice.  TLE had their Ortega Chili Roast Beef on ciabatta bread.  We both had coffee as our beverage, as it was getting cold outside as the snow bearing front bore down upon our little valley. Café Cathy is a wonderful chef, and LPG&RVR is blessed to have her return year after year.

By the time we returned the frigid winds out of the southwest had picked up significantly forcing us inside for the balance of the day.  As the afternoon progressed the snow bearing clouds began to build, and by 8 pm it began to snow, and it snowed all night long.  Last Spring it snowed 8 times between April 12th and Memorial Day, but with just one exception, the snow was gone by noon each day.  What will the Spring of 2023 bring?  Stay tuned, of course!

Thanks for stopping by!
