It is hard to believe that the weather in the North East is so bad because here in Central Florida it was so beautiful.  My husband layed sod and I went out and helped with the flowers.  I heard that they are having trouble with flooding and I think it snowed again in Vermont and maybe New Hampshire.  What a Winter it has been so far for those people. We are hoping for rain sometime this week.  I was born and raised in Massachussetts and Maine so this is why I am so interested in this section of the country.  Annette.
