Today’s Shadow Shots come from having been keeping my nose to the grindstone, working on writing up a chapter of the PhD. These are from our front window, looking out over the park, or looking to the left onto the cobblestone roadway. The sun can be truly brilliant, when it deigns to come from behind the clouds.<\/p>\n

It’s raining this morning, and it looks to keep it up for awhile. I jokingly said to my cousin that Glasgow had only 3 seasons: California Winter (a.k.a., Spring), California Spring (a.k.a. Summer), Oregon Winter (a.k.a. Autumn), Washington State Winter (a.k.a. Winter).<\/p>\n

The idea that temperatures peak out, here, at at most<\/i> 80°F \/ 26°C during the summer was frightening, when we first thought about it, but … yeah, that’s about right for what we’d expect during Spring, in California. The other comparisons … well, they’re about right, too. When all is said and done, will we acclimate back<\/b> to California’s summers of 115°F \/ 47°C?<\/p>\n

Happy Shadow Shot Sunday<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
