Winter Showers of the April Kind


Well, guess what? More snow. The pussy willows are probably shivering right now and the birds are hunkered down. Folks who have been here a while are talking about memories of April snows in the past. I guess we had a big dump way back in the 70s on April 15th. I ran early this morning, just as the snow was starting, and I have to tell you, running while it's snowing makes me feel peaceful. Driving early this morining was another matter entirely. Not peaceful at all!

I crossed paths with a colleague who does not particularly like living in Alaska, and all she could say was, "This was supposed to be the year that spring was early."
