I tell ya pollen is off the charts around Tampa. My truck is green in about two hours time. We need some heavy rain to wash this crap away.

Yeah, same here, but I think it's beginning to taper off finally. Getting a rain storm passing through right now, so that should help.

We are back to bone dry like normal now. I see a very dry late spring and summer in my area.

Well great....

So after the pollen clears out, and the spring love bug season, then we will have ash from the fires to contend with that are typical in these dry springs....

Around here, they will wait for it to be as dry as it can possibly be with a wind blowing, to do some "prescribed burns". Which will probably get away from them and then be a REAL problem.... One year we actually had burning embers falling into the yard. I was getting REAL worried that time...

Yep. Controlled burn, controlled government spending. It's all pretty much the same thing.

Hope i'm not as sick by the weekend. I want to feel good when Greg works his magic on the dyno and makes my 5.3 Colorado feel like a new and faster truck.
