I grew up in Wheaton, w/in spitting distance. In fact spitting on BCC high school was something of a town tradition..., but that was back when LBJ was president. The climate is extremely variable- ot was always fairly wet, but there were winters when I didn't wear a jacket, and others when the snow was in 10' drifts. The soil was rich enough for roses, and it seemed everything grew well. I could show you a place near Sligo creek where we used to dump garden cuttings that is now a 20 acre bamboo patch, and there are still Tiger lilies and daffadils for miles along the stream.
Ahh... Childhood memories of environmental corruption! Sooo nostalgic!
