Scary-Bright Ball in Sky Will Go Away

The Oregonian is generally a rather staid institution (in fact, I've heard it referred to as the Bore-gonian), but even they couldn't resist a bit of mirth when we had sunshine for a whole day last week. I thought readers who don't live in the Great Grey that is Portland, Oregon would get a kick out of this front-page newspaper heading last week.

Unfortunately the heading was only too true. We had a few hours of chilly sunshine Saturday morning to get in some gardening before the rain and the clouds rolled back in. At least all that rain is good for something: luscious spring flowers!
