June

I live in an area that is usually somewhat arid even though the valley where I live contains a large lake.  Usually summers see scant rain and the cities rely on winter snow melt for water.  But today is the first day of June and when I went outside this morning I wore a light jacket.  There has been rain and temperatures have varied so much that my furnace still starts up now and then.  This has meant progress on some projects outdoors that would normally be difficult because of heat by now.
