What has been an absolute perfect end to a weekend. The sun was shining bright this mothers day. Gwen is here and i know people would like to see the sun stick around for a couple of days. Its going to stick around. When i was outside i have to tell you i did not want to come in. We did serve it up with the sunshine as a very warm day with all our moms out there. Yes, once again, happy mothers day. Look at this, unbelievable as we hit into it upper 730s and low 830s at all three air pomplets it was spectacular out there.
