A public park is misery - what if they mowed the grass this morning? The neighbor's dandelion problem - gastly! I like winter because I have much more freedom to go where I please even with the bulky clothes for an Inland Northwest winter on the Idaho/Washington border.

I am right there with you, Sara. Unless I've just gotten my allergy shots, I can't stay outside for more than a few minutes without going crazy. And it's hard to read with watery, itchy eyes!

It is so terrible here that yesterday, after the rain stopped, there were streams of yellow along all of the curbs and sidewalks. At least the cars weren't yellow anymore!
