I love when the rain washes away the pollen but lately it seems to keep coming!

This time of the year I would love to open all my windows.  Yesterday especially was such a beautiful day but I don’t because the pollen here is crazy!  It must be all the pine trees which rely on wind for pollination.  You can see it on everything.  My Pink Lady Slippers, the cars, heck, you can see it in the air.  Thankfully none of us are allergic.  I just don’t want the insides of my house covered with yellow dust like the outsides are!  Here is an interesting fact: pollen is active for about 2 hours but can cause allergies indefinitely.
