Those of us who live in San Francisco try not to complain about the weather. After all, San Francisco is the epitomy of a "temperate" climate -- rarely too hot, rarely too cold. Yes, we need to turn on the heat off and on during the "winter"; and yes, we need to turn on the AC in our cars for a week or so during the "summer." But that's about it. Okay, there's the fog.... But for the most part, the fog means that our homes are deliciously cool at night, even when the days are hot, which makes for good sleeping.... But we are now on our 23rd day of rain in the month of March. According to my calendar, today is March 29. That means that it has rained 23 of the past 29 days. That's a bit much, don't you think?? A few rained-out Little League practices make my schedule easier to manage. A good dose of water in my back yard makes the plants grow better. But 23 out of 29 days????? I don't know if it's global warming or just a fluke. What I do know is I am very ready to have a solid week of sunshine before our summer fog arrives.
