I see no QOTD today, so if I may be so bold, here are a few.
I spent a few days in norhern Spain this week- it's a four hour drive from here in SW France. What was your most recent stay away, or if not, where you would like to go for a few days?
Our beautiful Ukrainian rescue dog, Lina, was so pleased to see us on our return from our short break. Do you have any pets?
Did you watch the Oscars this last week? What is one of your favourite movie winners from the past?
Spring is doing its best to properly begin here, but it's a mixed bag of sun and rain here (maybe that is spring!). What's it doing in your neck of the woods?
Bonjour from France.

Bonjour from France.

I spent a few days in norhern Spain this week- it's a four hour drive from here in SW France. What was your most recent stay away, or if not, where you would like to go for a few days? Been awhile, we need to take a long road trip. Where? Wherever a road beckons.
Our beautiful Ukrainian rescue dog, Lina, was so pleased to see us on our return from our short break. Do you have any pets? We have a rescued kitten, now Tiger the tabby cat that is all or part bengel. You can see her in my photo album.
Did you watch the Oscars this last week? What is one of your favourite movie winners from the past? Movie was Avatar: The Way of Water. Award was for Best Achievement in Visual Effects.

Our weather has been pretty much like yours. sun, rain and repeat.
I see no QOTD today, so if I may be so bold, here are a few. Thanks for filling in!
I spent a few days in norhern Spain this week- it's a four hour drive from here in SW France. What was your most recent stay away, or if not, where you would like to go for a few days? My most recent stay away was Nov 24 to Dec 6, 2023. I was on a cruise which ended in Panama City, Panama. It was fantastic!
Our beautiful Ukrainian rescue dog, Lina, was so pleased to see us on our return from our short break. Do you have any pets? One kitty, named Bella. I adopted her from some friends in October of 2019, and she was around 8-9 years old at the time. So I guess now she's around 13. She is the most wonderful cat I've ever met. She loves humans and goes up to everyone, even contractors who come to work in my house. She begs everyone to rub her tummy!
Did you watch the Oscars this last week? What is one of your favourite movie winners from the past? I didn't watch.
Spring is doing its best to properly begin here, but it's a mixed bag of sun and rain here (maybe that is spring!). What's it doing in your neck of the woods? A big mix of widely varying temps, from 20+ degrees above normal to 10+ degrees below normal. We've had some storms that were real doozies and some absolutely lovely, sunny days. Right now, it's about 60F and sunny. Tomorrow the expected high is 40 and we may get snow flurries after sunset. Go figure. However, throughout all this weird weather, my spring flowers - mostly crocus, daffodils and snow drops - are blooming like crazy! Tulips are coming up and will start budding in the next week or so, after we've had a few more warm, sunny days. My garden is coming to life!
Hope you enjoy the questions, and Lina says Hi! Thanks very much for filling in, Jez. Happy weekend, everyone! And hi to Lina! She's a beauty.

### it so happens we were in La Coruña, Northern Spain about 2 weeks ago. Awful weather and came back sick with bronchitis.
Our beautiful Ukrainian rescue dog, Lina, was so pleased to see us on our return from our short break. Do you have any pets?
### Had a box turtle since ‘64, she passed a couple or so years ago. Recently I saw this clip and wished I would have known about fingerboards, she would have loved it.

I spent a few days in northern Spain this week- it's a four hour drive from here in SW France. What was your most recent stay away, or if not, where you would like to go for a few days? At the end of next month I'm off to Delaware for 2 weeks in a wildlife refuge. It's actually farther than your trip from France to Spain. I go to get some photos of shore birds during bird migration season since Tennessee is landlocked and to get different songbirds than I see here. Next year I may go to Florida in February for butterflies.
Our beautiful Ukrainian rescue dog, Lina, was so pleased to see us on our return from our short break. Do you have any pets? No pets. Lina is beautiful.
Did you watch the Oscars this last week? No What is one of your favourite movie winners from the past? I liked The Departed and A Beautiful Mind from the 2000s and from the past The Godfather (1970s), Ben Hur (1959) and Ordinary People (1980s). Finally saw Forrest Gump not too long ago but I'm not a fan of Tom Hanks so I didn't go gaga over it. How could I forget Casablanca?
Spring is doing its best to properly begin here, but it's a mixed bag of sun and rain here (maybe that is spring!). What's it doing in your neck of the woods? The Bradford Pear trees (white flowers) were all in bloom this past week and the rowing teams were practicing. They may have a regatta, tomorrow or today. It's 67 and sunny here, right now.
