It was 12 degrees this morning on my way to work. <br />A funny story for you... We lived in very northern California (near Mt. Shasta) until I was 10 and then we moved to South Dakota. As a young girl I always thought of my birthday at the very end of March as being in the spring/summer...until we moved to SD. My first birthday after we moved, I think we had a blizzard and over 12inches of snow. <br />Maybe someday I will move back to a more temperate climate.Amy Munsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11282818370839157951noreply@blogger.com
