The rain collected all the pollen in the air, so most puddles we saw had a green film.

  • We love when that happens here, cause the pollen can get SO bad. Rain is essential.

  • Today Monica and I were climbing near Donner Pass in North Lake Tahoe, and our approach included an interminable bramble bushwhack. Best part was the manzanita or whatever it was had a yellow coating of pollen, so whenever you disturbed a branch, clouds of pollen would billow into the sky. Monica is considering allergy shots. I thought coming climbing here once a week every week for 2 years might have the same effect and be more fun.

  • The claim in ATX is definitely if you don't have allergies when you move here, you will by the time you leave.
