BTW, are we *ever* going to see the sun again?

Note to those outside of Nashville - we've set a new record for the
number of consecutive non-sun days (defined as 15 minutes or less sun
each 24 hr period). I think we're at 16 now (this current string
started on Valentine's Day).


Brag, brag, brag. You should move to Portland to learn
about what the absence of that yellow thing in the sky
is all about. Our roses grow on memories. And alfalfa
pellets!

How are your roses doing? In the dark, dark, dark
Nashville? Here in sunny Portland Oregon ( we have
seen the yellow thing maybe once since Valentine's
Day) the roses are acting like perfect divas. Some
are covered with leaves, goodness help us all since
normally by the middle of March (beware of the Ides)
we have a killer frost or some such that sends everything
back to ground zero. So I am not going outside unless
is absolutely necessary or I will get truly depressed.

But the white gorgeous clematis by Altissimo is in
full bloom...talking about missing dates...
