It's Warming Up, You Say?


With highs in the 60 today, it's pretty safe to say that Klamath Falls is having spring-like weather. This is, however, Klamath Falls. The winter-like weather could be here tomorrow. So enjoy it while you can! We have heard a lot of complaints - "There's nothing to do here!" So, we asked some of our readers what there is to do when it gets warmer. 

Warning - some of them will have you rolling in your seat. Apparently, people in Klamath Falls have a great sense of humor when it comes to our little community. So if you want to get outside, but not sure how to fully enjoy the sunshine, here's some suggestions (at your own risk):

1. Take down your Christmas lights. Christmas was, after all, 3 months ago. There's only so long you can use the excuse "I don't want to freeze out there!" 

2. Sunbathe in the front yard in a bikini. What? My grandma does it all the time!

3. Go to Wal-mart and go people watching. This is VERY entertaining.

4. Take a stroll downtown with your family, and support local business. While you're there, feed the ducks at Veteran's park. Avoid the greedy ducks that like your pockets.

5. Start your garden prep and yard clean up. Even though the weather can turn nasty at any moment, you can still clear out planting beds of weeds and put down potting soil. Also, good punishment for children.

6. Bake some cookies for your neighbor  It's not hot enough to avoid the oven yet, and baking can be a and all day relaxing activity. Not to mention the look of surprise on your neighbor's face when you deliver them! Please, don't do it naked. That's just awkward... for the neighbor.

Frisbee shooting robots! They get an "E" for Epic.
7. Build a robot that shoots frisbees in your front yard. Let nieghborhood kids load the frisbees. Please do not shoot it at your mother, she hasn't fixed dinner yet.



8. Enjoy a water gun fight. Because compared to -5 a few weeks ago, and large hail and snow balls 1 week ago, 60 is HOT.

9. Take your dog to the park, but make sure you keep him/her on a leash. This will help avoid those embarrassing "need to hump everything" moments. Also, extra entertaining if you have a smaller dog. 



10. How to walk your cat: 
Yeah... It's pretty much exactly like this.

  • Buy a harness and leash for your cat.     
  • Put harness on animal. 
  • Attempt to walk. 
  • Attempt to get cat to move at all for over an hour. 
  •  Laugh hysterically. 
  • Take frightened, vicious, clawing, insane animal inside. 
  • Return harness and leash to store the next day for a full refund.


Well there you have it folks, a little good humor to go with your sunshine today. We hope you are out there enjoying it!
