Letter from Marianne Katte
Climate – May 2002 – Colorado Central Magazine
Editors:
I read Hal Walter’s latest piece on the winter of his discontent and was just about blown away. Even worse then my winter, huh? Wish I could do something. Even though I now live in a temperate climate, this winter was exceptionally cold. Now we have a few wonderful Colorado days but the nights are nippy, so the azaleas got nipped and no toads, frogs, and salamanders. They just don’t move unless it is at least 5ยบ C. Period.
And do tell Eldon Rush that I loved his letter on Christo. I would love to see it go and I would even fly home to raft down the river.
Also, I just loved Martha’s essay and I am glad that I do not dust and therefore saved my children from this fate.
Anyhow, I really enjoy your magazine and thanks for putting it online.
