A NEW LAKE COMMUNITY

lifestyle community. As of this month, we have available for sale and

The community is unique in that there are 15 acres of common lake

There is an 8 foot wide boardwalk the entire 3000 feet, ready
for your morning or evening walk. The clubhouse is complete
and includes an upstairs and downstairs great room and kitchen,
an exercise room, 12 foot covered porch all around, pool,
showers and much more.

You can buy your lot and plan your dream home and start enjoying all
the amenities today. Launch your boat on our private launch, dock at
your private space or just sit on the boardwalk and tan. Enjoy the
pool, take a shower before dinner and plan your own get together at
the 4000 square foot club house.

...What A Difference A Day Makes...

IDEAL SPRING WEATHER: One thing I like about this time of the year—you
do not have to sit around for days waiting for the weather to change.
It is different almost every day. The contrast between today and this
past weekend is as different as daylight and dark. After some fog
burned off this morning, the sky was sparkling clear, visibility was
unlimited and temperatures were plenty comfortable.

THE CHANCE OF RAIN: Just a small risk at some point later in the day
Thursday as another cold front comes marching down from the Upper
Midwest and Northern Plains. The front should enter the state early
Thursday and by next Friday morning it will be pushing into the
Northern Gulf of Mexico.
Our moisture supply is not going to have time to replenish enough to
cause a widespread rain event. Instead, we look for only isolated
showers on Thursday with clear weather returning for the weekend.
Enjoy temperatures in the low to mid 70s through Thursday and then
dropping into the 60s Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Our coolest morning
should be Saturday with low 40s and some folks in the valleys will
have upper 30s.
That was the situation this morning, for example, 37 at Cullman Airport.

SPRING BREAK AT THE BEACH: Generally pleasant weather all the way
through the weekend and into early next week. We did not have any rain
in the forecast and it will be mostly sunshine every day. Highs will
be in the 70s until it turns a little cooler over the weekend and
drops back into the upper 60s.

WEATHER RADIO: The special offer from ABC 33/40 in cooperation with
Publix Supermarkets and Handy TV will get you a Midland weather radio
for only $29.95. They are digital, which means you can program any
counties you want to wake you up in the middle of the night.

UNRELATED THOUGHTS: Some people drink from the fountain of knowledge
while others only gurgle. I saw that on Twitter this morning. Good old
Deadhorse in Northern Alaska is hanging on to winter. It was 45 below
zero this morning with a wind chill of 67 below. Nuiqsut, Alaska had
47 below and a wind chill of 73 below. In the lower 48, it was 4 below
at Presque Isle, Maine. Still 21 inches of snow on the ground at
Caribou. Spokane does not have any snow on the ground now, but early
in the winter they really caught it. This season they have received
almost double their average amount.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: I continue to be amazed at my little 9-
pound watchman and greeter and diplomat and almost every other
adjective you can think about. She absolutely insists on screening
people who come to the front door. I guess it is her built in
protective instinct like a lot of dogs have. If the doorbell rings and
she is upstairs in the sewing room, the patter of her little feet
coming down the stairs sounds like a machine gun. Then she turns the
corner on the tile floor around the kitchen table and often her feet
skid out from under her. In about 5 more leaps, she is at the front
door wagging her tail so fast that it is a blur. Life goes on.
