Spring weather causes me great delight! Changes so much! Yesterday I was in jeans & t-shirt, working in my yard and vegetable garden. Mama snapped the photo of her 64 year old gardener removing a big ol' lilac bush/tree:
Last night it snowed.... LOL! Not much mind you, just the typical spring storm that comes in and dumps an inch or so, then moves on. I suspect it will all have melted away by noon today. But it's fun.
A few years back I had some folks from Oklahoma and Texas coming here to Washington to do a 600 mile 4wd trip from Oregon to Canada. Seems to me it was scheduled for June or July. They asked about weather... I hesitated, thought, and recalled that somewhere in Washington, I'd been snowed on every single month of the year! Including July, August and September!
So - told them to bring jackets & hats. Weather turned out to be remarkably nice for that trip, but we got up to a pretty decent elevation in the Cascades, and a fellow just never really knows.
Spring weather... Difficult to predict here.
Regards, Guy
