Northern or Southern Hemisphere?

Tonight Don & I went to the grocery store & it was snowing. It just makes me sick. I said to Don as we walked into the grocery store, "I thought we lived in the Northern Hemisphere, not the Southern." We should be going into spring & summer, not fall & winter as the Southern Hemisphere is.

When we came out there was easily an inch of snow! It has been snowing off & on all day. At midnight it is 28° F out. As Don went to bed, he commented, "At this rate, there won't be any fruit in the valley."

Tonight, he & Nick were explaining how the earthquake in Chile could have such a huge impact. So, I googled it & found this interesting article: How the Earthquake in Chile could change Earth's axis.

Another quote

So, I didn't use either quote, but this one:

In the spring I have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of four and twenty hours.  ~Mark Twain

Probably because it has snowed twice today. Both times the ground has been white. Don said it was just a spring shower, only it was so cold it was snow!! I got home from work at the same time as Don, so I sat in his car & we talked. There was blue sky & sun shining on the mountains in front of us & behind us & the snow was pelting the roof of the car.
