Approaching front will bring storms. It's 63 F with a high of 85 F and very humid. Summertime weather.
Keep an eye on warnings and stay safe.
Also, be kind.
That's your weather from the ancient VA Blue Ridge.

Thousands of photos from the left this morning, bound for BackStage Library works to be scanned. This large project is grant-funded.
Yay for accessibility!

Quiet morning in the ?
Volunteer Sue works on an inventory.
Volunteers John and Dianne digitize photos.

Sisters from the Crum family use the Smith-Crum collection to learn more about their ancestor.
Wonderful.

Whew it's 75 F by 10 a.m. -- going to be a hot one for sure with a high of 90 F!
Stay hydrated; use sun screen; be kind.
That's the weather from the ancient VA Blue Ridge.

Good morning, @Mandypar!
Going to be an early season hot one here -- 90 F. I don't think it's gets quite that warm where you live?

Good morning, @LlamaMountainStudioArts
What a busy morning you are having!
We got our garden in last night, whew. It was a family effort and I was glad for the help.

Going home last evening.
Windows down, John Denver singing "Rocky Mountain High" with me, this view.
They are the Blue Ridge, but still, just perfect.

Morning @LlamaMountainStudioArts
7 foot garden fence with caution tape flappers.
Stinky deer and rabbit spray.
Luck we have no falling trees or marauding bears.
That's what it takes to have a garden here.
Homegrown tomatoes are worth it.

Good morning, @Mandypar!
How is your day going? The birds are singing this morning -- one noisy little Carolina wren in my rhododendron by my bedroom window serenading me.

Morning @Minholkin!
My daughter picked the cherries last night. Going to jam them, I think, before I eat them all.

It's a comfortable 55 F out there this morning. Sunny with a high of 87 F; warm for late May.
Got the garden fence up last night; garden goes in tonight.
That's the weather from the ancient VA Blue Ridge.
Be kind today.

In always delighted when I find a bluegrasser pickin'at some classical. But what about the other way around? Check out Grammy award winning classical violinist Austin Hadelich's arrangement of Orange Blossom Special on an Italian masterpiece of violin craftsmanship from 1744!

So, the speech by the football player.
I consider my husband and I both home-makers. We both work outside and inside our home. We try to make it a pleasant place to be.
Personally, I consider being a mom and wife my highest calling. No work I do outside my home will ever be as important as my family.

Today's strawberries from our little plant, minus the ones I already ate ...

Rained steadily all night. Rain is moving out now and the birds are singing. Merlin tells me I have a scarlet tanager singing in my trees; I have never seen one here before.
In the 60s F; high about 70 F. Maybe thunderbumpers later, but I hope not. It's our open house at work -- Patton Day at the Marshall Foundation Library.
Be kind.

@CherNohio
May you have the strength and energy needed for your day.
