About the only thing to talk about is the weather and that wasn’t so good most of the week.  We had early morning temperatures in the 20’s and some days didn’t get up to 40 degrees.  Had some snow squalls and, of course, the ever present wind.  Sunday I looked out the window and watched the rain turn to snow for a bit, then turn back to rain.  We had pouring rain almost all day and as I type my news at 11 p.m. Sunday night, it’s still raining.  From the snow and cold last week, the daffodils looked kinda droopy.  Hopefully they’ll perk back up if we get some warm, sunny weather.  With all the rain, it sure is muddy and can’t do much in the garden.  Just too wet right now.

Not much to report since most folks are not going anywhere.  Those “essentials” are working and I thank them for all they are doing to keep this virus under control.  Our Stay at Home will be lifted on May 8th, but with social distancing still in effect and six feet away from others if you do go out, I think a lot of people will still stay home, to be on the safe side.

We are going to try and have a Civic meeting on Tuesday, May 19th.  It will be at 6 p.m. and at the Pavilion, due to social distancing.  Unless things change and our Stay at Home rule is changed.   Hopefully we can still have our annual Flea Market on Saturday, June 20th, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Don’t have anything else to report, so that’s it from my soggy back yard in Lopez.  Enjoy your week.  I think you will need your umbrella.  The only day I heard is to be nice is Tuesday.  Rain the rest of the week.  Have news call me at 570-928-9238; mail me; see me; or e-mail me at news@lopezpa.com.  I will get it in for you.  Thanks for reading and I’ll be here next time.  Be safe; stay well.

HERE IS THE REST OF THE STORY.
