Dear mid-60s Buick owners with
d'em Wintertime blues, . . . . .
This morning there was a tree service working on a nearby house. When I went over to investigate I found something rather surprising:
It is a Ford F-series truck from around 1965! Okay, it isn't a Buick, but it is certainly rare to see a 50 year old truck continuing to be used for business. This one has clearly been kept in good shape!
Not enough to chase away those Winter blues? This may come as a shock, but we already have some plum trees in bloom!
These trees are against a creek and that apparently allows them to bloom very early. Last year they were in bloom about February 1st. This past December was very dry and unusually warm in the daytime. I suppose that was enough to get these trees blooming almost a month earlier than last year.
So however dreary it may look outside at the moment, be reassured that Spring will most certainly come to you eventually!
Cheers, Edouard
