We’ve had a hard winter this year. Only last week we were experiencing snow and -10oC temperatures. Then, like a switch being thrown, we are into +10oC and above. The sun is shining, there is warmth in the air and the crocuses are out.
There are green shoots everywhere and we’ve been out sowing seeds for the summer vegetable harvest and we can lunch alfresco in the balmy warmth of the Mediterranean sun. Never mind the whinging gainsayers, summer is on the way. Soon we will see temperatures rising to 30o+C. Bring it on.
The local deer ate most of our crocuses two weeks ago. Spring is just breaking here on Vancouver Island. Downside; slight morning frosts. Upside; glorious sunrises.
I was thinking it was like a switch. I have a leather jacket, too cold for the cold and too hot for the heat but there seem only a few days available to wear it.
