A crazy day, weather-wise here in (supposedly) sunny Arizona. Of course, everyone is talking about the snow in Tucson that cancelled the start of the Accenture Match Play when two inches of snow fell. I guess what they say about the PGA Tour really is true – anything is possible.
…and it wasn’t just golf that was affected, check this video out from the Colorado Rockies’ spring training facility – just 30 minutes north of where we live. Pretty wild.
It looked like we here in Gilbert were going to miss out on all the fun, but then around 5 PM the sky got really black and a heavy rain turned quickly to hail. I walked down to the mailbox getting pelted by marble-sized hail and loved every minute of it! A couple of sharp flashes of lightning and some rumbles of thunder followed, then twenty minutes later it was over, but not before leaving a wintry sight on grassy surfaces:
I hate to see anyone left out of the fun, so New England, looks like you’re in for another snowstorm this weekend.
Sigh. Florida sure sounds sounds nice. I’m thinking Naples…
COOL !!!!

I am taking myself to Orlando for my 65th birthday…yep, doing Universal, Epcot and Animal Kingdom…have not been to Universal since it opened, never been to Animal Kingdom and LOVE Epcot. A friend gave me their time share condo for only 200.00 for 7 days, got free tickets for Disney and third day free at Universal. The new attractions are awesome and I just want to have some fun and be entertained. The condo is awesome, Tiki bar, pools and a great place to relax after a day of “let’s do this one and then let’s do that one”.
