Dreaming of blue skies.

Wet wet wet. Southern Illinois is wet today and has been either dark or wet (or both) for most of this week -- very different from the sky in the photo above, from March 5th. This weather makes it hard to want to do anything but drink coffee and read. Fortunately, the folks at Heartland News are predicting nice weather for tomorrow -- then rain again after that. Some respite from the clouds will be nice, even if only for a day. I'm sure this rain will pay off, though. You can begin to see the buds of trees trying to push their way out, and there are some blossoms at the university already!

I was thinking the same thing last night as I drove home from work. The skies in Manchester have been very grey of late. An occasional patch of blue during the day when I'm cooped up in the office but then grey when I'm out and about. I'm longing for a really nice spring day - mostly so I can go out with my camera and get some nice photos.

Wet Wet Wet was one of my favourite groups back in the 1990s!!

Found your site through your comment on mine... how DID you find me? What an amazing coincidence, I'm a 1993 SIU-C graduate myself. My mom still works at the university and lives in Murphysboro. I talked to Mom on Saturday morning and she was telling me about the spring storms. Enjoy - it's hot and dryyyyyyy in Phoenix this week.
