Snow? Today? Really?

We woke this morning to white flakes falling from the sky. This is April for goodness sakes not November. Here is what it looked like at about 8:30 a.m.

Roger at the bottom of the steps.

Sophia is off in the distance under the branch heading over the dike to hunt.

The garden is covered again.

Is this a case of forever winter and never Christmas?

And then old Mother Nature in all of her hilariousness decides it was just a little joke, and she decided to melt the snow, but not really, just enough, no real warm weather or sunshine.

Here is what the propane tank looked like at 10:30, just a little snow left under it, and streaks of melting down the side.

I did a little editing work so that you could see the streaks better. I should learn how to do some of that better.

Inside the house my raspberry and blueberry bushes are waiting to get out of their containers and into the real dirt. I so thought that I would be able to do that soon. I bought them on March 23, so it would be about time to get them into the ground.

Plant me, plant me they scream.

Well enough of all this. I need to get to track practice, I guess. Not sure how or where with snow on the ground, well, ok so it is just cold, and the gyms are in use for little kids volleyball. Maybe we will hold little kids track next fall and see about how that works for the other coaches.
