Good morning friends! It's #Friday!!! 😀 It's so New England to have -15 degrees earlier in the week and now today to have 52F degrees! 😂 I am feeling like it is #Spring & it really isn't. I still have a lot of snow in my yard because I have so many trees (shade). Looking forward to seeing tree swallows again! I want new photos like this (taken a few yrs ago.)!

Shell's board of directors are being personally sued for stuff they're doing within the company. That's an unusual thing isn't it? Never heard of it.

Apparently they failed to take climate change seriously, so this case is going to be interesting.
