weather underground

yesterday at nine o'clock i was in the garden seeding my wildflower bed in shorts, filp-flops and no t-shirt. today, at three o'clock it is 37 degrees. flurries and misting rain. heavy coat and gloves for the drive to work. one hopes that the apple blossoms don't freeze tonight. it happens some years. last year the blossoms on the apple tree were astonishing, but not many apples.

i turned the heat down sunday morning and thenwhen i came home at midnight, didn't think to turn it back on. igloo morning. saw two white-crowned sparrows at the feeder this morning, the first i've seen. three goldfinches deperately clinging to the niger feeder.

i think i'll make spanish meatloaf tonight.
