Duane posted this picture on Facebook this morning. That is my neighborhood. The middle of April. More snow predicted for all day today. And maybe part of tomorrow.
Linda...That was my reaction when I heard the sleet hitting my windows last evening. This morning my words were a bit more colorful. Now, about 4 pm, visibility is down to maybe half a city block, the snow is coming down in buckets and the wind is howling. Glad to be indoors. :)
You have a way with words, Gorges. :) Someone really needs to tell Mother Nature it is time to change gears. Here in Minnesota, April is the time for soft rains and the greening up of the countryside - not blizzards. Anyone who goes out today unless it is an emergency situation, is just plain foolish. Me...rocking chair, hot chocolate and a good book!

Oh my goodness!

ReplyDeleteI had forgotten all about that song, Gorges. Made me laugh!! It isn't 40 below here, but there is sure way too much snow for Spring.
DeleteLOL - For some reason, that song came to mind when I saw your picture.
DeleteGorges...We are beginning to feel like we fit the song!!
