Record high

A record high for the date was hit yesterday here in Erie, 86 degrees. After languishing in the high 50s and 60s for most of the month you can imagine how 86 felt! The sunny, warm weather is bringing the sisters outdoors in droves--well, not exactly droves, but a lot! Both sisters and residents of Benetwood Apartments, the 75-apartment HUD project just south of us, can be found walking the sidewalks throughout the day. It's really been nice to see so many of us enjoying the outdoors.

Erie continues in the yellow stage this week despite many of the counties to the south and east of us moving into the green stage. We just have too many people in the city to stem the catching of the virus. Luckily we have had only 4 deaths over this whole time. We hope that it continues to be that number. Most people are recovering.

Cardinals are one of our most frequent residents.
The males are always so eye-catching.

Here's one of the many flowering trees
that are popping out with the warm temps.
