Sunshine, ahead





Despite record-breaking moisture, it's been a fairly warm winter in western Washington.  In the Skagit Valley (about 60 miles north of us) the tulips are booming early this year.  I do like these beautiful short nature films made by Donald Jensen.

And now we're headed into a 5-day stretch of unadulterated sunshine. There's a huge ridge of high pressure building over the Pacific that will block the clouds and storms for days.  It might even hit 70 by the end of the week.

My sister Marji is visiting us, and she sure lucked out with the spectacular weather, as people sometimes do when they come to Seattle. Then they go home wondering, what rain?  

The garden is waking up and taking off.
