Chris,
This explains it. I thought you guys across the bay might have slipped very 
much farther north on the North American Plate, while I went south on the 
Pacific Plate, and I missed the earthquake.

As you said, we have been having those cold drizzly springs, and the first 
month of growth has been slow. I think I will put down plastic. I wonder if 
clear or black plastic makes any difference.
Any thoughts from you folks used to colder springs?
John
