And the rain has been trending up during this period, too; 2012 was the wettest since I started keeping track.<br /><br />ellen, I can relate. I've scanned a lot of slides, but certainly not my whole collection. It's quite a tedious task!<br /><br />virginiac, the records really help because I really can't remember from one year to the next. The blog is also a good record of sorts.<br /><br />nadege, cool!<br /><br />judy, one needs something to occupy one's winter days!<br /><br />bettyann, no kidding! I might cook!<br /><br />olivier, oui, je l'ai. Il a fait un peu plus chaud au printemps, avec beaucoup moins de pluie.<br /><br />victor, yes, I remember that. I also have been tracking the tennis seasons (ATP and WTA) in a spreadsheet since 2004. I don't know why, it's just fun.wcshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00551283829616757577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-15847297052878482942013-01-05T21:49:44.634+01:002013-01-05T21:49:44.634+01:00As I've mentioned to you previously I maintain...As I've mentioned to you previously I maintain Excel spreadsheets of football attendances for the four professional football codes in Australia and England's Premier League. Less relevant than the information you capture but a hobby of mine I cannot explain but am sort of addicted to. I haven't attempted the graphs and charts that you have. They look really good.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14778094395442538035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-42374024468469552002013-01-05T21:41:35.939+01:002013-01-05T21:41:35.939+01:00Très intéressant.

As the kids got older it became harder to remember how old they were when we went to a place I can identify. And if they're not in the pictures, forget it.Ellen Lebellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01929639076042070115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-59162899704333575892013-01-05T09:27:21.640+01:002013-01-05T09:27:21.640+01:00since you have been keeping charts pour 7 ans, do ...since you have been keeping charts pour 7 ans, do you notice a global warming trend? or a drought trend? just curious. anne marie in phillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11765140782182605141noreply@blogger.com
