Another Day under a Blanket of Grey

Well, here on the Third Coast the continuous cloud cover again persists for the third day in a row -- not a break in the cloud cover either for the sun to shine through and the steady 20 mph winds continue to blow from the north -- erasing any desires to get out and travel about on foot or in the Jeep.  The news last night from my son Tim and his wife Kathryn that she is pregnant occupies my thoughts -- I will become a grandfather sometime in late July or early August (depending on when the baby decides to come).

It makes the daylight seem brighter and my thoughts drift to my time in South Fork for the upcoming summer and whether to take this big rig to the west coast as the birth of my first grandchild approaches.  I will be studying those options and the different routes that might be available to Santa Rosa, CA -- excluding the one that would take me over Wolf Creek Pass (Never again, I say).

In the meantime, I have tried numerous times earlier this morning to get on my blogspot but, it seems the WiFi connections have been occupied by others staying indoors as well and tweeting or twittering away on the airwaves -- so, me and the twins have occupied the air cushions of the sleep number bed and tried to stay cozy as I have awaited a turn on the internet.  Now to check on the stock market.
