We usually get one of the biggest snows of the year in April. It's been snowing in the mountains but not here in the valley today. Probably been pretty unsettled for BeemerChef living outdoors as he is.

Glad I read this LOL I realized I was shivering at 72 -- time for me to stop whining, buck up and get out there and plant some herbs!!! Have a hot toddi on me, and back up your chilly rear to the stove and get toasty! Or just come visit me in California Cheers! <hm, shall I do marjoram or oregano...? Definitely need more sage for wild mushrooms on toast....>

Just watched a movie called "An Inconvenient Truth". Worth watching for anyone wondering about global warming. (Or anyone at all who isn't and thinks it won't happen).

Looks like its gonna get a lot hotter.

Here's a website that might balance some of that out for you. Remember the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. Don't just believe it because Al Gore says it's so. There is a lot of conflicting information on what should more accurately be called climate change. Don't make up your mind from one source. There are many more sites that present solid data arguing that humans are not the major cause of the current change in climate. They're easy to find with Google.
