Fifty Thousand Comments

My Blogger stats say that I have 50,002 comments. That sounds like a lot but I suspect some of you have even more comments on your blogs. Anyway, I appreciate everyone who comments, except for the few spammers who are just posting ads. I don't do a thorough job at returning all the comments because I don't want to stay up past midnight typing on the computer. My eyes get tired. I imagine that those of you who blog regularly know that it can take up a lot of time, even though it is enjoyable. I thank everybody who takes the time to read and comment.

I’m going to change the subject and talk about the weather again. It looks like our drought is finally over. That wintry mix we had the other morning was followed by a long, hard rain. A number of roads flooded and our river spilled over its banks. 

Yesterday I took Charlie to the dog park in Strasburg even though there is one closer to us. That one gets really strong winds blowing down from the mountain and across the fields, so I try to avoid it on cold windy days like yesterday. I still got really cold and did not stay very long. Charlie enjoyed it though.

Back in the warmth of the car, I drove down to the riverfront. The North Fork has flooded, covering the boat landing and part of the parking lot. The signs and posts in this picture are usually on dry land.

The large sign gives the rules for the River Walk, a mile-long trail that is near the river, but not normally under it like it is right now.
