It was supposed to rain this afternoon, but it started before dawn as I was eating breakfast. Oh, well, the spare car is parked at work, I have to ride anyhow. Started rolling, and it looked dark to the west, but lighter to the south, so I chanced it and headed for "daylight." That just meant two more miles of rain. At least it wasn't too cool, 45-50F.


I noticed last night something I haven't before. There's apparently a difference between when the white dogwoods and the pink dogwoods blossom, at least this year. Most of the whites are at peak, while the pinks are just starting to blossom. My white dogwood, at the northeast corner of the garage, is one of the exceptions; it hasn't had enough of the afternoon sunshine and heat to be an early bloomer, so it's just now coming out.
