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?

It’s 55 heading for 78 and sunny at the moment although it’s not supposed to be and probably won’t be for long. Yesterday we generated 10.36 KWHs and the m-t-d is 306.72 with 6 generating days left in April.
Thinking a bit about the wildfires in GA & FL. They shouldn’t be happening. They’re signs of climate collapse. Signs we likely have passed the point of no return where Nature takes it from here. The WWII-style mobilization to get off carbon fuels could still happen. But it would take WWII-style leadership to do it. And WWII-intensity propaganda to get “the people” do it. And as long as the filthy rich are getting filthier and richer doing what they’re doing it ain’t gonna happen. (The thoughts of my 3 am wake ups.) We do what we can, what’s closest to hand. So I’m off to start my boosting day. Holding the Good/Healing/Protecting Thought for everybody. {{{Meeses}}}
