We are on the eastern slope of the central Sierra in a tough little micro climate but it made us tough too.. lol, At least, I hope so. No flowers here except a few tough little vincas started to bloom a few days ago, brave little guys and girls, and a few buds of a flowering peach tree that always get hammered about this time. They get fooled easily, like the American populace..lol.. They never seem to learn.. No other leaves or anything else.. Well the peach probably did get it last night as the gusts of winds last night reached 80 mph with cold of around 32.. I don't know what the wind chill was.. So this morning we had snow flurries and tomorrow and the next day 60-70 degrees.. lol.. So one has to be quick on their feet out here. But by now after 30 years we are used to it.. It's good for one, as I think, one appreciates the warm, quiet spring, blooming days MORE, so much more, when they finally come.... The awakening of life once again.. When things blast open with all their ferocious beauty and one can just lay out there with all of it and just soak it all in.. Nothing better than FEROCIOUS beauty other than PASSIONATE beauty imo.. So I enjoy all those type moments of life, when things change so fast and beautifully and I APPRECIATE it so much.. Better than living my life in a plain, vanilla bubble of the same.. :) m
