It was a shock to my system yesterday after arriving in Baltimore when I stepped outside of the airport and the temperature was 53 degrees headed for a high in the 60s.
Cold--that is the only way to describe my feeling. I had appropriately dressed for the occasion by wearing jeans and shoes while toting a heavy pullover to ward against the cold in my backpack. But still--the last time I had worn jeans was during my last visit north, since then it has been shorts and sandals.Pollen on the Pond

Well, at least I was prepared.
It is hard once I get used to temperatures in the 80s to return to colder days. At least it appears that I brought warmer weather with me from Florida as there will be high 80s over the weekend!
I am enjoying the bright sunshine! And the green. The Springtime green of the new leaves is very refreshing and seeing the culmination of Spring is enjoyable. I noticed the green as the plane broke through the clouds on final approach to BWI yesterday. I remembered the Winter-brown and gray of my last visit.
But, what comes with Springtime? Pollen! Yup and I saw the pollen laying atop the water in the holding pond yesterday.
So yes, I am upping my allergy medicine!
Being back north is such fun!
