Global warming or just a frequent traveler?

Five weeks ago I was packing for a wedding in Tahoe. The forecast was 45 degrees with clear skies. It snowed.

Four weeks ago I was packing for a trip to coastal Maine. The forecast was 55 degrees with a chance of bad weather. I only wore a light jacket the whole time.

Last week I packed for a wedding in Northern California. The forecast was 75 degrees. I wore shorts.

This week I am packing for a week at a dude ranch in Arizona. The normal temperature this time of year is in the high 70s. It was 88 degrees there yesterday.



Who knows?! But I have been having a lot of fun on my travels. I will post updates on the dude ranch when I arrive. (For those of you in your mid-20s, it's the same ranch that was used in the Nickelodeon show "Hey Dude.")


Edit: The previously mentioned bag of mandarin oranges was actually a 20-pound bag, a fact that I discovered after lugging them up several flights of stairs. But they are still worth the whopping $5 that I paid for them.
