@Pat, apologies - there was a phrase missing from my last post, reading ".......more's the pity!!"

Everyone deserves a Spring Day, glad you are enjoying yours.
We've had 3 sunny days in Washington this month and the rest have been nasty, cold rain (6" in 13 days). I feel for all of my brothers still coping with the snow, and thank heaven for the rain.

73 yesterday, 20 when I went out to get the paper this morning. Great Falls, VA is usually more constant than that!!! Would like to see the highlands pics too.

@brudnod, will do my best. My skills are not great in that regard and I still can't see why a mechanism can't be put in place whereby it is as easy to post a photo as it is to insert an avatar (sorry about the mild rant!).
VA sounds a great place - AND that's where my favourite leaf derives!!!!!!

Not here in Connecticut! Current temperature is 22°F, tonight's low will be around 8°F. The forecast for the next 10 days includes one warm day, and below freezing temperature every single night.

@reborn, sorry I missed this (slapped wrist) - in response to your consecutive posts, you seem to be oscillating between excessive pessimism and optimism:
1. That the weather will revert to winter blizzards
2. That England will not win
I suspect you are deluded on both counts !!!

Here's a satirical piece on weather forecasting in Canada. Love Rick Mercer.

@pruss, thanks - that brightened my day. But I have to report that things have changed here, on my last day in the cottage!
'Scotch mist' lies over the loch (mist with very fine rain - what the Irish call "soft rain"). The sun is gone.
We haven't exactly reverted to winter - I think summer is here!!!!!! LOL

With the cold/freezing weather here in Colorado beginning to break, I can wake my briars from their winter slumber. Since November I've probably only gotten to smoke my pipes a couple handful of times. Today it is mid-50s and gorgeously sunny out. Time to open the cabinet for the first time in a week ...

Spring sprung for us weeks ago. Our Summer is just around the corner as I am already running AC in my vehicle and home.
