The evergreens here that would be common in Nice (eucalyptus, bay, holm oak) are all dark green. The deciduous trees in leaf (at the moment all of the rose family, oak, sycamore and horse chestnut) are all bright green.

We may have actually... I think came close, once it hits 70s a couple times they pop open very quick. If I remember correctly they took like 1-2 weeks last year and just in time since May hit 80s. Actually May 4th hit 80s. I have to check now. Might of been a special year because of the late start to Spring and late blooms then early summer weather.




Yeah, disgusting IMO. Did you see the inside of that? Recessed lighting, new hardwood floors, crown moulding, and the bathroom is nuts. The archway from one room to room looks old. I get the need to make it safe but really? You buy a historic home and you make it look modern? Might as well just tear it down and build new. Awesome water views. Did you see the taxes? WTF?! That cant be right. $68,000/yr??USD.

Summery? That looks wintry to me. We don't get that kind of clouds in the summer.

Seattle doesnt get thunderstorms in any season though, does it? Certainly doesn't get cumulonimbus clouds in winter.

That's the thing. The west coast has very different clouds.

Those don't have be thunderstorm clouds; but they're clearly convective clouds. Would need rather active weather

Stone Homes! Love it. I bet they don't go up in flames and burn like paper like homes in the U.S. But that costs a fortune to build with.. Only the richy areas around here actually build with Stone. Or at least the outside of it is.


Whats sad is there are many historic homes around here and in the state but they renovated or fixed them to look modern so we would never know passing by.


Historic Homes in CT: Early New England Colonial 1640-1780, Georgian 1720-1780, Federal 1790-1825, Greek Revival 1825-160, Gothic Revival 1840-1865, Italianate 1840-1885, French Second Empire 1855-1885, Stick Style 1860-1890, Shingle Style 1880-1900,
Wow, so beautiful and different from my area. Most things here were built from the 1920s to the housing bubble. I always thought that it was interesting to imagine what those buildings went through over the years as a kid and even now, but where I grew up most houses from the 18th-early 19th century were antebellum plantation houses .

They are the most common clouds in summer around here, and you are right not every day gets a thunderstorm.


What is unusual to me is that we don't see those until May most years, and then they are here all the time from then on.
