Is it Spring? - bjcotton - 12-06-2007

I was wandering around Marilee's front yard and here are some of the things I saw..it was almost 60° yesterday and 50+° today:

This is a Tulip tree...the flowers are yellow and smell of lemons:

This is a yellow rose budding out:

A rhododendron (sp?):

And I don't know what this tree/bush is, but it's budding out:

I think your weather has played a trick on Mother Nature. And what a lovely trick it is too. The flowers are beautiful

After last week, you can't imagine how beautiful it is up here!!!

From Billy's photos, it looks just lovely.

This is what we have:

You beat me to it, Laura! That's how it looks here, too, and it's just as cold as it looks.
Billy, Just kidding, my friend, it looks lovely! Enjoy the beautiful weather.

We're supposed to get 1-4" of snow tonight. I love it on the first snow of the season and at Christmas... after that not so much.

I really like snow as long as it's out there and I'm in here. I had frost bite on my hands many years ago..almost lost my fingernails. Ever since then I can't stand anything really cold or hot.

Maybe Marilee is in a microclimate Billy.


Re: Is it Spring? - bjcotton - 12-06-2007

It's usually colder here than where I live, but it's just been weird here.

I heard last week that Oregon had 100 mph winds....is that true?? Very strange weather patterns all over the world but part of the cycle.
