Today started with a boom, or rather a bunch of booms in the middle of a T-storm. Now that the storm has past it’s still overcast with generally low hanging clouds. When I got up the temp was 50. It’s predicted to be overcast today with a chance of showers high 57.
Well my day will be nothing to stand up and scream about, so I won’t say any more about it. (^.^)
Yes it’s May Day and it’s foggy out there, 46 degrees. Today generally cloudy, slight chance of rain, high 58.
May Day, is a European festival of ancient origins marking the beginning of summer. It came to North America with European settlers. Celebrated in eastern Canada, sort of celebrated in the USA but not so much any more. Traditions often include gathering wildflowers and green branches, weaving floral garlands, crowning a May Queen (sometimes with a male companion), and setting up a Maypole, May Tree or May Bush, around which people dance. Bonfires are also part of the festival in some regions.
Maybe it’s to bad that we no longer celebrate this wonderful holiday.
May your day be sunny and dry and as always may God bless.
And today is also my Grandmother’s birthday, she was born in 1875 when Grant was President and past away in 1970.
