Where did Spring go?

[L Verge]

It's 3 pm in Southern Maryland and the Northern Neck of Virginia, and Surratt House has fifty people out on the Booth trail. Right now, the outside temperature is 49 degrees. The dogwoods, redbuds, and flowering fruit trees are shivering along the route. Mother Nature must be having hot flashes and turning down the temperatures!

Laurie, I was in the Northern Neck yesterday and this morning at an annual acoustic-guitar gathering and it was sure cold and wet last night. This morning was much nicer as I was driving home to Hyattsville and by afternoon the weather was delightful.

I'm ready for some warmth.

Today was how I like it - low 60s. My daffodils are sticking their heads back up to the sun, and my peony plants are reaching for the sky. Now I want it warm enough for Chick Fil-A to bring back their peach milkshakes!
