Obviously, we can do nothing about the weather, except complain. So, I think I will. Up here in Maine, we are experiencing one of the weirdest winters I can remember. (Unfortunately, my dimming memory goes back only about a decade, lately.)
OK - one day it's 62 degrees. Two days later:
One day, the snow is gone.
Three days pass, and:
That's all I've got to say, for the moment.
The weirdest part is that this is exactly the weather pattern in Ohio!
ReplyDeleteOne day I am at the park with my dogs in a sweat shirt, the next I am in a goose down jacket scraping ice off the car windshield!
Love your profile pick and opening line...live long and prosper yourself! LOL
Deb,
DeleteThank you - the photo was taken at Hadlock Field in Portland, at a Sea Dogs game. It's my summer residence, in a way, with 72 games played every year.
In Maine, this weather has set a number of records, and I fear there is more to come.

I think you have bi-polar weather this year.
ReplyDeleteTrobairitz,
DeleteWow - I wish I'd said that! I wonder if there's an app for that, or some medication. Anything to help us determine what to wear for the day. Actually, it changes from breakfast to dinner...

Same here just south of the border. We had rain and 40 which means we had flooding due to the frozen ground. The normally dry ditch that drains the entire valley flows under (sometimes over) our driveway 'dip'; Monday morning we drove through 6" of flooding water. Tuesday afternoon we came home to honest to goodness frozen waves on our driveway.
ReplyDeleteWe've had ice and we've had floods, but never ice floods.
Coop,
ReplyDeleteTrobairitz has nailed our winter weather: bi-polar! We can only hope for a more normal summer.
Tom
yeep...bi-polar. Excellent way to describe it. We're experiencing the same, minus the snow. :)
ReplyDeleteLori,
DeleteJust wait - in a few years, maybe you'll get the snow in Georgia and Maine will become the Miami of the North.

"Anything to help us determine what to wear for the day. Actually, it changes from breakfast to dinner..." Same here. The only good thing I can think to say about it is: It has given me ample opportunities to improve my wearing layers technique.

Keith,
ReplyDeleteLayering is a vital skill. I'd love to get a series of photos of Mike getting out of his gear when we leave the road and enter a restaurant. People gawk and frown and I retreat to a corner. However, Mike has never complained about being cold, so it's obviously worth the effort.
