I just deleted over 100 spam comments from the spam bucket but for some unknown reason, a couple of them were from regular readers. If one of them hadn't been flagged for my review, I'd have not noticed when I emptied the slop bucket 9and I probably wouldn't have emptied the bucket for a few more weeks). The installed spam filter is good but not perfect.

It could be I've accidentally deleted other not-spam comments in the past, so in the future, if you post a comment and it doesn't show, please let me know. I may need to form a white list but I'd prefer to not have to do that - I'd need your email or IP address to do so ... and that's your business to provide, not mine to require.

Say Hi to the folks ...

Spring comes late March, just like every year.
Unless it waits until April or early May.

But the passes should be open by Memorial Day.
