We have the strangest weather. We have only /two/ seasons (or maybe I should say "too" seasons ) -- too hot, and too cold!

We have no Fall. We have no Spring. It stays 40 or below all Winter till about the middle of March, then it goes straight to 84-100 every day (usually 90 or above clear thru till October).

The downside is, to survive it, all year long either your heater is on, or your air conditioner is. And PGE obliges us so nicely by hiking natural gas rates in the winter (what our heater uses) and electricity in the summer (our AC). Nice of them to care. (!@#$%!)

Ah well, at least a few trees enjoy Spring and Fall. We have this beautiful young tree in the side yard that bursts out in gorgeous reds in "Fall" and the most stunning little white puffy bunches of flowers in the Spring. I keep forgetting the name, I've been told so many times but, you know how Alzheimers gets ya after 20. ().

Cheers all!
