The visions of spring dancing in my head were abruptly ended when it began to snow on Saturday morning.
Come Monday night and it was still snowing. Despite this we are not up to our armpits in the white stuff because it’s been a heavy, wet kind of snow that packs down nicely, forming slick injury-making sheets of compacted slush.
Today the sun came out and it’s warming up, causing a gradual and pleasant melt. I trust this will be the last of the snow this winter. THANK YOU, MOTHER NATURE. MOVE ALONG PLEASE.
I’m now ready for summer. Only four months until the community pool at Hume Park opens. I hate swimming but it’s one of the official markers that you can doff the parkas and don the Bermudas.
