Re: Today

Great news about Squinty. You are making a fast trip. I have a cousin in Grant's Pass. Forest Farm Nursery is in that neck of the woods, south and a little east of Grant's Pass. Fire Mountain Gems is in Grant's Pass too. We stopped there coming back from California. It looked like a place I'd enjoy spending a couple days exploring. I woke to snow this morning. Melted away, but it's still in the 40s & 50s and probably no warmer for a week or so. ----- Original Message ----- From: "james singer" <islandjim2@gmail.com>

Odds and ends:
Poppy patches at Tejon Pass. Redbuds on the Sisk[whatever] Pass. Also snow
flurries and... brrr... very chilly wind.

Yep, great news about the Squints.
I am making good time; I'm in Grant's Pass, Oregon, and it's only 1 PM. But 
since I got on the road at 3 AM, I decided to knock off early. That leaves
only 200+ miles for tomorrow morning.
