A SKY WATCH FRIDAY POST

IN LANCASTER OHIO WHERE THINGS ARE GRAY/GREY

LENGTHENING DAYS
As the days grow longer
The storms grow stronger.

MARCH WINDS
March winds and April showers
Bring forth May flowers.

One misty moisty morning,When cloudy was the weather,I chanced to meet an old man,Clothed all in leather.He began to compliment And I began to grin.How do you do? And how do you do?
And how do you do again?

Spring is showery, flowery, bowery;Summer—hoppy, croppy, poppy;Autumn—wheezy, sneezy, freezy;Winter—slippy, drippy, nippy.

A sunshiny shower Won’t last half an hour.

Whether the weather be fine,Or whether the weather be not,Whether the weather be cold,Or whether the weather be hot,We'll weather the weather Whatever the weather,Whether we like it or not!

FROM BLIZZARD TO SUNSHINE WITH A LITTLE GOLF AND FISHING

This video of the Blizzard of 1977 starts slow but is really interesting. ( Jimmy Carter was President)( The announcer says, “If your stranded in your car stay there don’t panic you could get killed out there.” “You will be rescued.”) ( Wind Chill between –40 & –60 degrees.) (29 Deaths)

Well we have snow and Gray/Grey skies in Ohio but nothing like the above video portrays. My wandering road trip is to warmer climes, Hilton Head S.C. where I hope to play some golf and do a little fishing. Accuweather says days high temps for the area should be high 50’s low 60’s… Puts a smile on my face.

Will be playing the Arthur Hill,Trent Jones, and Fazio golf courses at Palmetto dunes

Hope to take a lot of photos and see the sun and some blue sky.
