Good Weather....

 My daughter Kathy had a get away day to Lake Michigan  for her Valentine's treat. I told her , No swimming, as you can see there's no lifeguard on duty. :):)
I tried to get a photo of the neighbor man's dog...it ran on ahead ...so here's the neighbor. :):) He walks his big tan dog everyday.  I gave the dog a peanut butter sandwich once and it always looks toward our house. LOL
Valentine's day sunset thru the back woods.
We went to the grocery and it was over flowing with gifts of stuffed animals and flowers, in their floral dept. Pretty balloons too.
This was yesterday's skies. Very pretty. It was cold at 38 degrees. But who cares when it looks like this.
 This was yesterday's sunset.  Love all the colors. Today is cloudy but warmer, to be near 50. This is still February..just amazing temperatures .  Today Ted is splitting wood for next  winter season's fires. This  week went by quickly.
   I have  to tell this...I feel as if I am holding my breath. There were two 13 year old girls murdered on a hiking trail in a small town....near where my twins live with their families.  The girls were let out to hike the family friendly trail together and were to be picked up later ..they were not at the arranged pick up spot. Found the next day, along the trail near a creek.  I do not know if any place is truly safe for our children. I told my daughters to warn their children and friends. Praying for the girls families.

  1. Good Morning Susie. Those sky pics are beautiful. I am so with you on loving our spring like weather for February!!! I will take the cold if there is sunshine. I think they said we will hit 60 on Saturday. Wooo Hooo! How said about those girls. This kind of news is so hard to take. I am praying for those girls and their family. My heart breaks for them.
    Hugs,
    Kris

  2. Lovely Pictures. Wish we had a weather like that here. Instead it's very slippery on the roads and it's hard to even walk. I don't like this period at all!!
    Hope you have a great day.
    Love Elzie

    1. Pilar, We have had the mildest winter this year..some pretty sunshiny days. Thank you for the prayers...that is so very sad and scary abot the young girls. Their town only has 3,000 people in it. So everyone pretty much knows everyone there. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

    1. Nana, I just hate to think someone is out there...someone who could kill two young girls. Yes, I did think of our own.
      I know what you mean about how warm it is so early in the year. We usually have snow on the ground all of February. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  5. Oh my gosh, I got the chills reading about those girls - there is no place safe any longer, that's for sure.

    1. I do not know if I were raising my girl in this day...if I could let them go anywhere without adults along. It is so scary. I will let you all know when the person responsible is caught. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  7. Susie, I am deeply sorry to hear this about the girls. That's such a sad story. It must have really upset your twin daughters who live near the same area. My heart goes out to the families.

    love, ~Sheri

    1. Sheri, It's a sad world when our children are not safe even in pairs. If I hear of the person being caught I will post it. The town is a small town and they all know each other...pretty much. Bless you, xoxo,love, Susie

    1. Jenn, The state police and FBI are helping with the case on those young girls. It is so hard to believe how quickly things happen and change our worlds. We must always warn our children, and watch them. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
