I wish it could be a bit warmer here. I don't think we've hit "normal" temps for quite some time.

We'll see if we can send you some. The weather here is bizarre.

I can tell it's spring because I can't breathe and my eyes feel like they have grit in them.

I saw a butterfly and 2 snakes yesterday, and butt is already better. Signs if summer?

There are buds on most of the trees, which usually don't appear until the 15th of April. Some years, the trees are not fully "green" until Memorial Day.
I need to get slowly used to heat. I am riding tomorrow, but thankfully, it will be mostly before noon.
Supposed to be 46 on Sunday. Back to reality.

we had deluging and flooding rains, some possible tornadoes and very strong winds today which has washed most of the oak and pine pollen out of the air for the day, but then the weatherman cheerfully informed us that the extra moisture encourages the oak trees to continue to bloom and put out oak pollen, and the extra moisture in the ground will lead to higher humidity (what 88% isn't high enough?).

I am so tired of feeling like I am going to bleed to death through my eyes or dehydrate completely through the runny nose.

Bah humbug! Although I did see a red bud in full bloom and the Bradford Pear trees along the freeway access road are blooming.

Next comes the grass pollen- Whee. Time to mainline the allegra!

Yeah, that's right
Yesterday and the day before I did my first mountain bike rides and the conditions are just perfect. I expected mud from the thousands of snow days but it seems that the wind had dried everything. I'm so happy!
