You know that Spring is almost here when Major League Baseball is already playing exhibition games. Our Florida Marlins played two games today as they literally split-up into two teams. One team beat the Washington Nationals 4-1 and the other team lost to the Baltimore Orioles 7-5. Yesterday the Marlins thrashed the Orioles 16-3, and the day before that they tied the Nationals 3-3.
The National Weather Service in Miami announced today that the three Winter months of December, January, and February were the warmest Winter season in 76 years – and the second warmest on record. That statistic applies only to Miami International Airport. It does not necessarily apply to Homestead because as we know our weather here can be very different than what is going on at the airport some 30 miles away. Case-in-point here in Homestead we bottomed out at 45°F and 51°F over the past two mornings. At MIA – 50°F and 56°F respectively. We were 5°F colder on both mornings.
Well those are your ‘Bedtime Stories’ for this Friday night. I’m currently watching “Amnesia” on NBC. I’ve got another long walk around my neighbourhood planned for tomorrow morning, so be sure to catch ‘The Major’s Walk-A-Thon’ here on this blog shortly thereafter.
Until then remember this:
Maybe she’s born with it. Maybe it’s Maybelline.
