We have had very late snow, Tina, so be prepared to hit the snow line a lot
sooner than you have in the past five years. A whole lot sooner. I'm amazed
at how "green" things till all.

On the news they just showed the amount of snow along Tioga Pass up into
Yosemite. The road is open but there's a ton of snow up there at 9,000' and
ice in the high lakes. My neighbor was in Yosemite last week and said there
are waterfalls he's never seen before EVER and he's a native who has been to
Yosemite in the spring since he was a child.

We still haven't a 100 degree day here in Davis and there are none in our
forecast for the next 7 days.

Personally I'm longing for hot weather but I've become a lizard in my old
age.

Have a super time!
