Hi,
due to a very warm April a lot of flowers have bloomed early.
In the UK there is a very old saying - Ne'er cast a clout till May is out. This means don't discard your winter clothing until May is here, trouble is; does it mean the month of May or the May flower which is the old name for Hawthorn? The hawthorn blossomed early so I'm off to get a lighter sweater:D

good shots and layout. Our Rhodies are blooming here in the Willamette Valley too. Beautiful. Takes the gloom off.

Nice blooms, Kev.!

I had just sent an e-mail to to my friends in England asking if they were finally getting "spring" weather. Now I know.

Norma,
thank you.
Tomorrow they are forecasting temps in the seventies which is what we expect in mid summer not spring.
