The dawning of a new day....

Well, here we are with News 14 Triad alive and well on air. It has been a long road with many twists, turns, and long hours of work that had its share of frustrations. Alas, we are here, and can enjoy the 'dawning' of a new day. Lucky you, I have plenty of personal photographs to share with you here...thought you'd like to see a 'dawning' of the pink glow before sunrise looking at the Cloud Peak Wilderness Area in northcentral Wyoming from just about a year ago:

Had to fight a few technical brush fires this morning to correct some programming glitches, but luckily I wake up easily early in the mornings, and with great clarity to solve such troubles when there is no one else to call for help...a clarity which deteriorates through the day, I might add! Raise your hand if you can relate...

Nice to have quiet weather, though our Stormtracker with Level 2 data is a nice piece of equipment for stormtracking and more. It's a numbers forecast, which allows us all to take deep breaths and marvel at the beauty of the day...and hopefully not fight anymore technical battles! Even the ol' tropics have gone quiet, with 2 disturbances far out in the eastern seas, and in very hostile environments for development.

With nothing pressing on my weather noggin', I turn to silly humor. Question: How can you tell when a mother kangaroo is happy? Answer: She jumps for joey! I say that because this is the last week to see the kangaroos at the Asheboro zoo before they hop a flight back to Detroit. See, I told you this blog will wander all over the place...

Enjoy your day, and remember that of all the people that could have read this blog today, you are one of them. I-V drip of coffee, please, ma'am....
