Lora,

Your rain of yesterday arrived in northern Utah around noon today and
rather marred the first blooms on RASPBERRY JAM, the first SDB to bloom
here, which opened this morning. I know that California has a great
diversity of climate and terrain, but I am still somewhat incredulous that
you have a bloom season that seems to be so nearly simultaneous with ours.
