You'r...Bob, we call Schneeglöckchen, snowdrops. You're right, they only just bloomed. They're one of the first flowers to bloom, along with crocii.<br /><br />ITC-1, I think it's a bit early for tulips here or in Saskatoon.<br /><br />MargaretJ, let's agree to disagree on the climate change front. :-)<br /><br />Lynne, the temperature has gone back down. You need to bundle up for the beach today.<br /><br />Kathy, my fingers are crossed that your blooming fruit trees hang on until your REAL spring arrives.<br /><br />Linda, you said it.<br /><br />Sian, all our dogs use the treadmill. Started off with them on leash and I sat beside him and gave him a treat every minute or so. Then the least came off and the treats weren't handed out so often.Sybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944601364218561984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-61293807313275096492012-03-26T07:01:41.556-03:002012-03-26T07:01:41.556-03:00Early spring here in Orkney (Scotland) too.

Brilliant idea....hmmm doubt I can convince the cat to have a go though....Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-69851520498115670712012-03-25T18:59:12.110-03:002012-03-25T18:59:12.110-03:00We've had a bit of everything here.

It is happening. Of course, the climate has always been a state of flux, and the naysayers like to pounce on the fact that Mother Earth routinely goes through cold and hot spells. <br /><br />What troubles me is the speed at which these changes are happening in our life time. What should take 10,000 years is happening in 50 years. Adaptation is impossible within this framework.Linda Paulhttp://rangewriter.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-90039865918668395522012-03-24T19:02:52.400-03:002012-03-24T19:02:52.400-03:00thank you so very, very much for putting that Fahr...thank you so very, very much for putting that Fahrenheit translation in there! I saw your first Celsius reading and sighed, fearing ignorance would rule. As for this crazy spring weather, it's finally moderating here.

There is nothing different about our weather pattern - just more "doom and gloom" media. why? It boosts ratings, of course!MargaretJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06022113216131867421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-80209609166886693372012-03-22T15:10:16.749-03:002012-03-22T15:10:16.749-03:00You better believe it Sybil!
