Today, Theo and I were sweating at the park. It left me wondering if we are going to skip Spring again this year. It was in the 40's to 50's this winter, and the average high this week will be close to the 80's, lows in the 60's. By May I will bet my potatoes (since they won't grow well anyway without a chill) that it will be hitting triple digits (3 years running). The zones have moved upwards, so I need to acquaint myself with southern garden varieties I guess. All in all, I think Canada is the winner here. Last year with the dangerous heat wave that lasted three months, my tomatoes stopped producing until September. I am now dreaming of northern climates, kind of what it used to be like here. Soooooo, I know most people won't care, but it is a big deal for me that I get to plant my seeds and a few seedlings outside in early March. (Stoically Expecting a Hailstorm)
