How well I know that you folks on Ocracoke...Indeed! How well I know that you folks on Ocracoke Island were delighting in the cooler, spring-like weather while folks such as myself were perspiring to much-to-early summer temperatures and sneezing thanks to tons of pollen!<br /><br />Daily, I would check the contrasting temps between the NC mainland (specifically, the northern Piedmont) and Ocracoke. And, I would become quite jealous that Ocracoke offered not just the stunning natural beauty for all to enjoy in early April, but also such pleasant temperatures while a ferry boat ride and 225 miles away, I was suffering! <br /><br />With hesitation and realizing defeat, I turned on my central air conditioner just to avoid the heat and to discourage a layer of thick pollen from entering my house from open windows!<br /><br />Yep! Oh, I KNOW you blessed folks on Ocracoke Island were not suffering from the balmy heat this past week. <br /><br />However, I guess upon reflection, I realize that the lovely weather couldn't have happened to any nicer folks!<br /><br />So, Philip, enjoy the comfortable temps while you can! Oh, by the way, there was frost here in the northern Piedmont of NC this morning. My air conditioner is quiet now!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
