It's nearly 50 degrees and drippy.

WKTV's forecast: "The weekend looks a bit unsettled with the chance of showers both Saturday into Sunday. Mild air will try to move in on Saturday and if we see sunshine, we do have the potential to warm up into the low 70s. Our next front, a cold front, will push through Saturday night into Sunday, giving us another round of showers."

A blog-reader sent this picture, taken yesterday morning when frost glistened in the sun out on Canning Factory Road.

I had an E-note from John Peterson, on the 30th, saying that his son "Dan left for IRAQ Mon, arr. in Kuwait Yesterday, waiting for enuff to make a full plane to go up to Al Asad air base NW of Bagdad."

It made me wonder "How many of 'our kids' are over there?"

These next pictures are for the many blog-readers who miss the "green, green grass of home."

The images are all clickable.

It's time to go back to Root Glen!
