It’s a curse of being in the middle of the country. Sometimes we get warm air from the Southwest, and sometimes it comes down from Canada. It can change quickly, especially in the Spring and Fall.

The photo looks so peaceful. It’s hard to believe it’s so windy. We’ve had some big windstorms here too. Our temps dropped from 80 degrees F (27 degrees Celsius) to 36 degrees F (2 degrees C) overnight. 😳

Standing atop of 60 ft Broke Leg Falls
Menifee County, Kentucky

I’m sure there’s a story behind the name. You’d probably break more than a leg if you went over the falls

To each their own. My husband and I are traveling in an RV. I could do a van if I was traveling alone.

2/I preferred Chiang Rai. It felt more like a Thai city, with a variety of things (museums, gardens, parks) that weren’t so focused on foreign tourists. It was less crowded too. They’re building a major highway between Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, so Chiang Rai may not be the quieter city much longer.

1/It depends on what you’re looking for. Chiang Mai has a huge expat population and it really caters to expats and tourists. English is spoken in a lot of places and you can find chip shops and pizza places if you are looking a cuisine other than Thai. The surrounding area is beautiful.

I’m just glad I’m not the one in charge of cleaning the litter boxes! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜·

I saw it right away, but now I’m wondering how many people are like, β€œWhat is she talking about?” πŸ˜‚

Good morning Susan! Thanks for the coffee! I’ll enjoy it with my Sunday scroll, enjoying everyone’s #stunday photos and recommended reading

I came upon this boulder completely covered with life on a hike along the first floor, where a creek made a windy path through a valley

To me, it seems like stocking up before a hurricane is a little more legitimate than panic buying before a snow storm.

Are frozen chicken tenders a popular panic buying item, like they seem to be in Cincinnati? πŸ˜‚
