Not a heck of a whole lot going on here. Are rain is gone after last weeks 3 days of It, I was ready for more and the other night we got some but that was it. Why does it always seem to rain at night when you cant even enjoy it? I did get some nice shots or Rhyolite in the snow, I wondered out there and never got out of the van so I would not slip, the roads were even still slick so snap I did and off I went! Its been kind of a lazy week, for some reason I have been real sleepy during the day? My son is sick and I am trying my hardest to stay away from him, I feel so bad when the kids get ill... I have had this running nose thing since Oct, I think its allergies.. Well today I got out there and clipped down the mums and rose bushes to my surprise to see some of my bulbs popping up through Mother Earth! Trying to get rid of the mint, the cat was rolling around on the ones I did not get picked up for the trash can, I still can not get rid of that stuff! I hate it, Even in freezing temps, it wont die! Any ideas or help? well thats about it from here. I have started to get my Valentines Cards and mine all left my house. Good thing come in small packages... Enjoy your weekend, ours are filled with Basketball games, what fun...

I love mint!! Just don't throw it away, start a compost bin, or simmer some in water on the stove to make the house smell good and if it's peppermint, it does have healing agents in it, makes a good cleaner too. Aren't the valentines great, some are so creative, I love it! Love the photos too, I'm hoping to have some snow shots today! If you started the honey/cinnamon cure you wouldn't have a running nose, I swear it works! Hope Kyle gets to feeling better soon.

Neat shots of Rhyolite. Love those old empty ghost towns. Always good history reading.

Thanks for the neat Valentine. Loved it.

I hope your nose stops running---it just might run all the way down the road. LOL MB
