Anyone else notice a lack of birds in the Valley?

LOL. I had some that actually moved into my attic, had to do a lot of repairs in their wake. If anyone wants some birds, I'll be happy to bring you some too.

Hi: Nice to hear from you. Everything is fine, hope the same with you. Spring has finally come. I'd say the last couple of weeks, it started to get up around 60 degrees. At least a few times a week anyway. Everything is starting to spring to life after the long cold winter. It was an exceptionally cold winter this year. A new term was given to the cold by the weather people this year. Polar Vortex and they were right on with that word. It was a cold and snowy winter for the record books in many areas. Poor Worcester is usually stuck with the highest snow totals, but this year it was here in Southeastern Mass.

I can honestly say as bad as roads can be in this part of the country. I have never seen the roads in this bad a shape. This winter really did a job on them. Many of us have to avoid many roads altogether they are so bad. I have had some severe damage to my car from the pot holes, and just lack of road maintenance. I guess many of us have. Even I-95 and the Mass Pike have made the news, with people filing claims for damage to their vehicles. Something is up. I'm wondering where our Excise tax money is going to fix these roads. It's very noticeable how much better roads are in the sunbelt states. Then again they don't have the weather conditions that contribute to the problems.

I think I read that Phoenix has already hit 100 degrees. I guess that isn't anything unusual since its May now. So I hope you will enjoy your summer months, and perhaps you will take a trip during the hot months.
