I spent a July and August in Florida...it was way too hot for this northern boy. Also lived in Puerto Rico for 3 years. It wasn't as hot as Florida, but very humid all the time. ...always green.
We were going to paint the grass white for Christmas one year, we missed the look of the snow so much, especially a white Christmas.

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together.
All things connect......Chief Seattle, 1854
