Just yesterday, Steve pumped water from the top of the pool for hours. Then today, winds up to 50 mph whipped through the region and created havoc. Lacking weight, the winter cover billowed and blew up like a mushroom. The days have been so dreary and depressing. I crave sunshine, warmth and hours of swimming in my pool. With luck, we should be able to open it in about six weeks! This summer, I am definitely going to hit 100 miles! Last summer, my only intention was to exceed the previous summer's tally of 63 miles. It wasn't till I hit 50 miles on July 31, that it even seemed possible. If I reach fifty miles by July 26, it should be possible.
All across the midsection of the country, violent tornadoes devastated communities, turning homes into piles of rubble. Here, the winds took out a few traffic lights and power lines. Minor damage compared to Illinois.
Tomorrow, I'm off to the Apple Store to buy a new laptop! I'm excited about having a computer with greater capacity, memory, speed and features, but I'm afraid of the transition. I've done it before and it's confusing and frustrating.
