I'd love to experience one year of zone 8. This will make you appreciate what
you have - Here in northern Wisconsin, we snowed again for the 4th Sunday in a
row. We're up to a visible 18" on the ground. North of us just got over 2
feet of the stuff off Lake Superior. Our temps today topped out at 21 briefly
before dipping back down at 2:00pm. Calling for 5 tonight with 25 mph wind
off of Lake Superior again. The only daffodils I see are the 3 pots I forced
out in my greenhouse. You are soooooo lucky to reside where you are. I'm
envious.....

BlankGeeeez,
Reading about everyones weather has brightened my day here in Eugene,
Oregon.
54 out now..... lows in the high 30s...Daffodils in full bloom ..Camillia
trees almost over...... the plum trees are in bloom and the bees are
happy....everything green...the dormant trees are in bud....Iris is
starting
to bud.

The whales are headed north the steelhead and salmon are on their way and
the
garden stores are open. The dogs are busy keepin the deer out.
No sales tax or self serve gas
No snow when I was awake_melted when I woke and that happened just once all
year .

God I love it here
Thanks folks I was starting to take it for granted!
