No Dogs Please

I went to the down town flea market yesterday and had a nice look see around the place before the heat got too intense. Didn’t find any treasures that I couldn’t live without but I did enjoy meeting and talking with a few interesting vendors that were there for the day.

It never seems to amaze me how so many people bring their dogs to this market. It just doesn’t make sense. It is an outside market, on a black top parking lot of an elementary school. These poor dogs are walking on this extremely hot surface while their idiot owners are looking around not even seeing how their dogs are burning their paws. It was in the high 90’s yesterday, so you know that the parking lot was burning hot.

People leave the dogs at home, have a heart!

April Showers

Friday, April 23rd, 2010 | entertainment, life, weather | No Comments

It wouldn’t be April without the famous April Showers that are supposed to bring May flowers. But why does it have to rain on the weeks ends. There are so many things going on right now, all being held on the week end, but every one is being held outside and of course we are hearing that it will be cold and raining all week end long.

Trees

This year will be a productive year for people that do tree work. This past winter was a hard one and there are trees down every where you look. So I expect to be hearing a lot of chain saws going on these next couple of months and some people making some good money for once.

Let It Rain

Thursday, April 8th, 2010 | Health, life, weather | No Comments

We have been blessed with wonderful weather for the past week. I don’t think we have to worry about another snow storm for some time! The only bad thing that comes with great spring weather is the allergy issues that so many of us have to deal with. The pollen is so think that you can see it every where. I’m sure the car washes are doing a good business right now. My burgundy car looks pretty creepy with a green dusting all over it.

Let it rain tonight and hope for a better week ahead.

Wicker Weather

There is something about wicker patio furniture that will always be pleasant to the eye. And it’s nice to see some nice wrought iron pieces mixed in along side of it. My parents have always had their back yard done up so nice for entertaining and to enjoy as a family as well. They have always leaned towards the all weather wicker that is available these days. It only makes sense to have something that is going to spend the majority of it’s time outside weather proofed and have it last a good long while. There are some pretty junky wicker furniture companies that produce some pretty nasty pieces that people end up wasting their time and money on way to often.

Before I’d buy any type of new wicker furniture, I’d be spending some time online seeing what all is out there and then researching the product and then find the best deal available for online shoppers like myself. Free Shipping is a big plus and more sites are accepting PayPal, which keeps me coming back and doing more business with them.

With the weather getting better and better I’m sure I’ll be spending more time at my folk’s assisting them with getting their yard ready for the year. And then it will be time to get started on my own yard.
