Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be. across the nation and across the world. It is just pas 9:15 p.m. in "The City."

We have a current temperature of 23° under cloudy-skies, that actually feels like 23° with only a one mph south wind blowing. Tonight's low temperature will fall to 16°, while tomorrow's high will reach 26° with a 41% chance for a.m. snow showers, before falling to an overnight low temperature of 19°. The sun will rise tomorrow @ 7:37 a.m. and set tomorrow evening @ 6:20 p.m.

There is good news from the NWS with regard to the upcoming daily high temperatures. We will get to 33° on Sunday and continue in the 30° range for the foreseeable future. Is spring springing?

The NWS is reporting a current barometric pressure of 30.35" of Hg and rising, while my own DTWS is showing 29.74" of Hg and steady.

We decided to take a short trip around GH this afternoon to do some sightseeing and picture taking. We should have headed to the Grand Haven State Park immediately, but we didn't, so we arrived there as a secondary destination. I took some pix there and later at our third destination, Harbor Island and Linear Park, which is adjacent to the BLP Sims II power plant. That stop also also yielded some good pix. 

We didn't see any birds in flight, but we did see this drone.

What's a stop at the State Park without a picture of the outer lighthouse on the south pier.  

One of the sculptures that line the channel along Harbor Drive.

Linear Park is part of the GH Parks and Recreation Department.

I used the trees as a frame for the partially demolished power plant. 

And also for the Coal tipple too.

The Pere Marquette locomotive #1223 is partially snow covered. 

I took some time today to work in the kitchen and my efforts produced the vegan Italian meatballs that Mary incorporated into our dinner. More simmer time for her secret recipe sauce means more flavor at dinnertime.

While I was in the kitchen. Mary was boxing up our donations to the local Goodwill Store here in GH. Then, I sat down to do some crossword solving and also read several chapters from the Last Days of John Lennon. We have learned a lot from our reading.

I just watched the southbound passage of MMRR locomotives 2170 and 2019, as they towed seven CHCs, and 11 CGCs. I have heard the northbound runs several times recently, but I have not reported on the runs in either direction. 

Tomorrow, I hope to get back to my painting. I  have some ideas that I want to incorporate into my current effort. I need to get back to my guitars too, as I've been neglecting the girls for several days. I have been more respectful of my harmonica practice.

Otherwise, we plan to make that donation run, do more reading, more crossword solving, more cross stitching, more knitting, and more retiring. Ciao.
