As far as Mother Nature making ironic weather statements go, this one could have been a doozy.
Loraine and I are leaving for Savannah tomorrow, for out first getaway in two and a half years. Normally, the high temperature in Savannah tomorrow would be 88. However, a front just moved through bringing rain with it, which means tomorrow’s high should be 83. I mean, that’s nothing to complain about, until you look at Marquette’s forecast for tomorrow and see that the high here is also supposed to be 83..
That’s right. The day we leave Marquette for Savannah, Marquette is the same temperature as Savannah. ironic, huh? Maybe Alanis Morissette should do a new version of her song just for that.
Not to worry, though. Things DO get back to normal in Savannah by Friday, and temperatures at the end of the weekend will be in the 90s. And while Marquette should be warm, as well, at least Savannah will be at least 15 degrees warmer. I just find it...weird that as soon as we leave things will usually warm up around here. That always seemed to happen at the end of August when we went to Europe; now, it’s happening at the beginning of the month when we’re going somewhere else.
Who says Mother Nature doesn’t have a sense of humor? But, at least it doesn't look like it'll rain anywhere near as much in Savannah as it could here. So at least we have that going for us.

That, of course, means there won’t be one of these for a few days. I hope you’re okay with that and, if not, tough. The plan is this--if everything goes to schedule (and in the past 16 months has ANYTHING gone to schedule?) we’re supposed to be flying home, with a four hour layover in Chicago. I’m planning on writing and posting one of these then, complete with any cool pictures I happen to take (and trust me, in Savannah there are a LOT of cool pictures you can take). So look back then. Hopefully, there will be a new one of these. If not, then you’ll know that the 19th month of 2020 has struck.
Yet again.
Okay; that’s it. Behave yourself, and wish us luck. We’re really looking forward to getting on an airplane again!
