15302. I want to be outside too! But we could use some rain to wash the pollen away. I want to open the windows but I don't want to wipe up all the yellow dust.

15307. The pine pollen is terrible! It seriously gets this bad here. I've never seen anything like it.

15311. I loved pine trees until I had them. Once the pollen stops, the pollen bodies dry up and get everywhere, then last years cones drop, then in the fall the pine needles fall by the baleful. Pretty, but A LOT of work

15312-we had 7 pine trees in our side yard about 2 years ago and I loved the shade they gave our kitchen and living area but, we had a lightning strike that took one of them out which also wound up setting our yard on fire when the electrical current ran down the tree, through it's roots and caught our gas line on fire that ran through our yard
