And those white things from dead dandelions!!!! They float around and stick on everything! PITA when you are washing your car and trying to dry it as they stick on all the water.

But spring/summer is better then the dead of winter.... road salt... freezing cold... icey roads. Not to mention you can't open your sunroof / windows for fear of freezing to death on the highway. brrrrr!!!!!

Yah, I know. You should have seen the pollen coming out of the trees in my area yesterday. It was fairly breezy and there were clouds of yellow stuff pouring out of the trees. It was so bad that the mountains around my town were obscured almost completely by a yellow haze!

And then there are all of the animals coming to the road. It was roadkill day in NH yesterday I think (we hit two birds at the same time! Two birds were fighting and they tumbled into the road under our wheels...well I guess that'll teach them to get along! :? ).
