So this is global warming?



I think most of the tulips we've had now have frost burn.

Many of the flowers literally look like they've been battered with frost damage. The birds sit glumly without a chirp on the leaden freezing mornings... with not a chirp in prospect.

Someone toss a little 'global warming' on the fire to warm things up... please!

Surely things will improve...

Yeah! What's the deal? It's the coldest Spring we've had in many, many years! This past Winter was darn cold and snowy, too. Makes one wonder about the whole global warming thing...

Well down here in Venezuela, the weather has been crazy too. Right now is sooo hot! Is never this hot in April. And we are supposed to be in rainy season and we've had only a couple of showers.. so there you go, the problem is global alright.

I'm so worried about the large chunk of ice in Antartica that broke off.. :o(

Oh my. It's in the eighties here...

They do say that it can freeze until 'les saints glaces' (the ice saints) which is the 15th of May over here.

So no one buys geraniums or puts them out until after May 15th!

It's hot as H E double hockey stick here! Phew! Nothing like trying to sleep in hot humid weather, atop the bed covers and imagining all too clearly that you're actually in the Sahara. Ok ok...I secretly LOVE it!

Long live Spring and Summer!
