Summer's Fancy
Mystery Quilt
 Installment #6
June3, 1998
    Warm weather has definitly arrived here in southeastern Michigan.  Though this moring is a bit cool.  One thing for sure no matter how warm or cold I prefer these changes over the weekend end weather that left us without power for two days and has prevented me from doing much of anything on the computer.  Constant brown outs in the power during the last day and a half have been a bit more than spooky and a bit more risky to be on the computer.  So these unexpected events have prevented me from getting things up and going as I had hoped.  I am hopeful that I will get this installment up this morning before (or if) there are any other power related problems.
