Tallahassee's close enough to Georgia ... must be the same kind of pine tree.

>>How could anyone forget that Georgia pine pollen! I certainly haven't! Yellow pollen everywhere at least an inch thick (well, that may be an exaggeration) unless the rain temporarily washes it away ... then there's yellow puddles everywhere! I live in Northern California now, and have 12 huge redwood trees in my backyard. They have yellow pollen too, I was surprised to learn! Different season tho (we had the pollen here about a month ago) and nowhere near as much pollen! (That's probably because there's nowhere near as many redwoods as there is Georgia pine!!! At least not in town, maybe in the rural areas ... )

>>That's true about the dogwoods ... peak dogwood bloom is around the 10th of April. I had forgotten that it was that early. I sure do miss the Dogwood Festival in Piedmont Park. That was always a fun event.

>>I've been away now for almost 5 years, and I still get "homesick" sometimes. But, I love California, too! Atlanta, as great a city as it is, can't really compare to San Francisco! Uh oh ... I'm probably gonna be starting a few Southern vs left-coast wars here on the UT. Oh well ... < bg >

>>>You forgot the pine pollen that turns everything that pleasant yellow color *gdr*. Really I agree with you but dogwood bloom might be too early for the northern folks to have their airports dug out of the snow.
