Spring, Summer which is it?

Spring, summer which is it? To some of you this might seem like a silly question. But this is a real question that Nicole has had. Here our average temp throughout the year is the mid to lower 70's. We only have a few changes that indicate that Spring is here. One of them is the blooming of the Jacaranda tree. This is a tree that is pretty ugly most of the year. It has these really funny looking pods that drop and smear all over the road when cars run over them. They also have these whirly twirly things that fall on the ground and make a mess as well. But right now these trees are absolutely gorgeous. Some of you right now still in winter like weather are probably thinking that we shouldn't be complaining. We do have warm weather but we honestly miss snow and the beautiful colors of fall. So to answer the question as to which season is it? We really can't tell around here. Trees always have leaves on them and flowers are always in bloom with the exception of the Jacaranda tree. So hang on all you Northerners! Warmer weather is on its way!!
