  1. Not quite out here yet but one of the biggest Yoshino cherry trees in Vancouver (or anyplace) is on the street in front of my place and its buds are almost open.
  2. The first blooms on the Magnolia kobus in the courtyard here opened yesterday. Still only a few open. May be a few days before enough are open to perfume the courtyard.
  3. Currently 68.9˚F. Been as warm as 70.0 this afternoon.
  4. Max of 58.6˚F yesterday, overnight low of 37.0. Official forecast calls for a max of 68 today.
  5. I can enjoy many types of weather, and the weenie-mode meltdowns from Jesse are like the cherry atop the sundae for spring warm spells.
  6. Only 54˚F here. Thin overcast may rob me of my 60-burger today.
  7. I remember one winter in the mountains of New Mexico where there was no snowfall over 3" the whole winter long… until May 2nd, when 8+" fell.
  8. Environment Canada says MBY should be blessed with a 70-burger on Saturday. Even before that warmth hits, the buds are already starting to open.
  9. NM has one of the highest poverty rates of all US states. Lots of run down areas.
  10. In Vancouver, the flickers have learned that the standard street light design the city uses is hollow inside with a thin stamped sheet-metal cover that resonates excellently. You almost never see flickers drumming on trees here. It is almost always streetlight covers and occasionally downspouts or stovepipes.
  11. Has Tim ever done that? Merely mentioning a trip to Hawaii doesn’t count. People would wonder about his mysterious absence here if he didn’t do that.
  12. I can confirm based on personal experience that the night skies are exceptional in that area.
  13. I had been planning to go to Texas to see the eclipse, but various aspects of chaos intervened. At least I got to see the total eclipse in 2017. With friends, in a remote area, in a five-acre meadow we had all to ourselves.
