91 degrees today - already 63. Summer came before spring this year. On Sunday driving back from Kathleen, GA east on I-16 and north on 221 I saw what looked like clouds of smoke. On closer examination, I realized it was pollen - for miles, clouds of pollen between the forests of trees - mostly pines. Last evening, Martha told me she had seen the same phenomenon in Greenwood. In the last five minutes, the temp has risen to 67! This morning I am picking up Guilda to go to Circle meeting at Millie's home so don't really have time to write, but I promise I will later today. Trouble getting connected this morning to the Internet, so........

  1. Hi - glad to see that you arrived home safely. We've been drenched in pollen too. Should be lots of little pine cones this year! Hopefully we'll get some rain in the next day or two to wash some of it into the ground. I've had to blow it off of the steps to the house several times already. My azaleas could use some rain too! I put a bunch of water to the ones around the house. They are ready to burst into bloom and they'll need extra water to sustain the beauty... well let me go plant some irises. It sure was fun to have you here for the weekend.
