[QUOTE="buddy, post: 523401, member: 12886"] OH man we have had such the opposite experience, our summer last year was unbelievably hot in MN, then nearly NO winter...very little snow in a part of the country where people tease that we have winter all year. the apple trees have blossoms a month early and now with a few of those last of the season freezes at night, the whole crop of apples are at risk this year....Hope the apple growers and others do ok. Nothing cooler than apple season. (I guess they wont really even know how much damage has happened for a month or so).... You guys are welcome to come to MN any time! Would love to have you visit. (LOL I am sure husband would love to go to the country's largest mall, hahahahaha) Day two coming up in a few hours, I am really hopeful. He already has a schedule change because I have to pick him up for the social skills group he is trying out. I cancelled all other therapies though (this one is based on building relationships so couldn't really cancel) and will work out the new schedule and give him a week of just school for now. He really loves his therapies though and is a kid who likes to be on the go. So he asked me who was getting him last night and I confessed .... I would. He had no neg. reaction.
