The forecast is for highs in the 60s. You have to love that. I was going to wait until May first to plug in my bubbling boulder, but at this rate I may try sooner. Last fall I placed two contractor bags filled with insulation and a tarp over the boulder. I am hoping that the pump did not freeze. If you want a bubbling boulder in your yard, simply google Spinner Landscape. They are located on highway 25 north of Buffalo.

Frank Underwood is evil. Last night I watched the final episode of season 4 of “House of Cards”. Frank and his wife Claire are still fighting to stay out of jail. Kevin Spacy and Robin Wright star as the President and the First Lady in this great Netflix show. For over two years I had no TV except Netflix and in my opinion it is well worth the investment. I now have cable since my son is launching “The Outdoor Report” on Fox Sports North and Fox Sports Wisconsin in July. Also, I am a PBS Newshour fan.

The final episode of Downton Abbey aired last Sunday. I was expecting to find out that Match.com was the new corporate sponsor because everybody ended up with a love partner except Barrows. I was hoping that the father of Edith’s little girl was going to show up at the wedding, but the writers chickened out. They even had the minister do the “Speak now or forever hold your peace” bit, and he paused for a while after saying it. They never did tell us what happened to Michael in Germany, he just disappeared.

The APHC show this week is a rebroadcast of a show that aired in March of 2011 from the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Special guests include Emmylou Harris and Sara Watkins. The Civil Wars sing “From This Valley”. Music City all-stars Sam Bush and Stuart Duncan team up on “Diamond Joe”. The usual cast of characters will entertain and Garrison will announce the arrival of spring in Lake Wobegon. Enjoy the show.

“What is a weekend?” Maggie Smith as the Dowager in Downton Abbey.
