Frorida Spring

It seems to me that Florida spring begins in November. So much of the Flora begins to perk up and grow during this time. I plant vegetables and they flourish because the weather is perfect.The days are in the low 80's and the nights are in the 60's. The trees which must grow at a rapid pace during the summer rains have another growth spurt during this time.

Our orange and grapefruit trees begin to grow and flower from now to late February and many of the flowering trees and shrubs burst out in full bloom . Whatever the reason we feel like it is spring and count November and December the most pleasant months for Snow birds.

Tonight the sky will be filled with up to 500 meteorites per hour as we have our yearly cosmic show. Maybe this is the beginning of spring after all. We who seek the south for a multitude of reasons cherish the variety of colour and diversity which becomes a showcase for all who seek it.

Theresa and I use these months for biking and outdoor activities which are uncomfortable in the extreme heat.
