Summer is here!!

Our first really nice HOT week end. The wind is not blowing, and the temp is up.. Great weather for boating. We have people in town this week end!! Yeah - Yeah.. I know the price of gas is going to be a big factor for a lot of our boaters this summer. With the amount of snow pack on the west side,,, run off for Lake Powell & Lake Mead,,, I have heard rumor that we should still be able to use the lake all summer. Link to Lake Mead - South Cove Ramp http://www.nps.gov/lame/launchramp.htm Bureau of Reclamation Web site,,, http://www.usbr.gov/lc/riverops.html Lots of information on the water levels and usage..

Meadview AZ Chamber of Commerce Spring Fling

This is the week end for the Chamber's annual Spring Fling. Lots of events and food at the MCA in town. Good thing the weather is going to cooperate with us this year. It was a cool breezy morning and warmed up nicely this afternoon.. Hopefully that four letter word won't show up tomorrow. (Wind) Looked like a bit of traffic in town this afternoon. Boats in and out of the Market, and the Hardware store even looked like it was having a traffic jam in the parking lot. Here it is 9pm and cars are still zooming up and down Sandy Point.

Have a great Spring Fling in Meadview this week end. I pray that we all to have a safe and enjoyable time.

We also have a Meadview Quad Ride every year and this year I believe they called it the Meadview Days instead of the Annual Poker Quad Run.. I will find out and let you know when it is... It's coming up soon.

Wind!!

Only we try not to say that four letter word. It was nasty today. Dust flying and stuff flying all over the place. I am sure glad as of tonight it has calmed down and seams to be a very pleasant evening outside. Best time of year to have your windows open, the fragrance of the blooms make for a great room freshener!

Desert Flower's

The Desert Flower's are in bloom. This is the time of year I will stop and smell the roses.... Only in this case it is the desert wildflowers (or weeds). We had a healthy amount of rain in the beginning of the year to produce an array of color and sizes. It is amazing how we can live with brown colors around us for so long and then BOOM the color explosion is everywhere. Meadview has a wide variety of flowering plants that you miss because they are so small. If you stop and take a closer look you can find flowers the size of pea's that look like orchids. It's amazing.
