Welcome to The Moose Pond! The Welcomings posts give the Moose, old and new, a place to visit and share words about the weather, life, the world at large and the small parts of Moosylvania that we each inhabit.
Welcomings will be posted at the start of each week (usually Saturday night with a Sunday date). To find the posts, just bookmark this link and Voila! (which is Moose for “I found everyone!!”).
The format is simple: each day, the first moose to arrive on-line will post a comment welcoming the new day and complaining (or bragging!) about their weather. Or mentioning an interesting or thought provoking news item. Or simply checking in.
So … what’s going on in your part of Moosylvania?

Good Saturday morning, Meese! Stayed in bed well past the usual getting-up hour. I was tired. Right now it’s 46 F. under cool, bluish-white skies in Ashburn, going up to 55 F. later. Harrumph!
I have a semi-decent day coming up:
Shred truck is a-comin’, there’s shredding tonight
Shred truck is a-comin, their wheels are in sight…
I love Shred Saturdays. I am AWASH in carrot cake! My friends keep giving me cake, some of it good, some of it dry, no matter. I’ll eat it corner by corner until it’s gone.
Then income tax prep, I HOPE a visit to the gym, and then dinner with my neighbor. Tomorrow the Boyz and their families are taking me out to a Chinese meal, to which I’m very much looking forward.
Wishing a good day to all at the Pond, and also wishing that our long national nightmare were over.
