Not quite the weather I expect to see in Sebastian Florida, the price of oranges may be going up soon.

Well, so far, "we" have lucked out in my local area with no more than about an inch of snow, the photo below was New Years Day a few years ago and I wouldn't have to drive more than an hour to see this kind of pile today.
I'm in the Great Lakes region but we got rain when everyone else got snow. Then on the cold windy days the "lake effect" was going the "other way" dumping across the lake.
Anyway, I'm not complaining about the lack of snow, I see right now on the radar that there's a whack of that white s... in areas of Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania. This one might just get "us"

Well I thought winter was finished but for the last week I've been seeing leaves shriveling up from frost damage.
It is finished . . . isn't it?
It's almost June, surely Summer is coming, right
Then why is it still so cold (around here anyway)
I want to lose the pants and I'm tired of wearing socks with my "Flip Flops" to keep my toes warm.
Someday soon.
I can't wait till my Smoke Tree comes out in bloom and I can take summery pictures for donssite or my photo blog again.

Another victim of the last winter blast . . . or was it?
The tracks from this truck were straight as the road started to take a gentle
bend. Maybe the driver was suffering from fatigue or tunnel vision and did not notice the bend till it was too late.
This region is notorious for white outs, so perhaps the driver could not see the bend in the road.
The driver may have been trying to look through a dirty or snow covered windshield.
Whatever the reason, the damage is done and it becomes another learning opportunity and an example of winter hazards drivers deal with in northern a climate.

That's it, No More!
I don't know where this cold white stuff came from, I was sure it was gone for the year.
I spent all day Sunday outside doing spring stuff in reasonably warm weather then suddenly back into snow and cold.
I heard something like 400 accidents reported on local news, how quickly people forget how treacherous snow and ice can be.
DRIVE SAFE!

I won't miss winter and I bet I'm not the only one.
I've seen enough of the white stuff this year, I don't mind seeing it go away.
Now the construction season is upon us.

SLOW DOWN in construction zones,
let the workers enjoy the spring too.

Oh yeah, you can check out my Smoke Tree too.
