Think Spring

Today, March 20, is the first day of Spring.

It's cold, wet, windy, and snowing. Which isn't a suprise here, but still not what one would want on the first day of spring.

Hope everyone has a good one, no matter what the weather.

Right around 0/32 with an inch or so of snow expected this evening. But, at least the ice is gone from the bay, a month before normal.

Sunny and warm in BC today. A week ago or so ago we got snow (latest in the season I can remember) and now it looks like spring has arrived.

Supposed to be a high of 40 today. Woo-fricking-hoo! I'm ready for some sun and warm weather. Can't wait to head to FL next week.

Rob... thinking there has to be a way to get back south

It's a little chilly here, but there are a couple flowers starting to pop up in the garden out front.

Now that the sun is poking out from behind the clouds, I guess that I can go shovel the snow now.
