Egad! The Snow Mow!

I cannot believe it!  Our gardener is out today mowing our lawns despite the icy snow covering!  I hear his mower grinding and clacking over the crunchy surface.  God bless, Mr. Le!  He's got the same work ethic as USPS -- for a lot less pay.
Can you even wrap your mind around the fact that it's March 22 and we're still getting snow in the PNW?  What a winter!  This has been a serious setback for my efforts to convince certain peoples of Midwestern habitation to move northwestward to a more tranquil clime.  I hear it's in the 70's and 80's out in the middle lands.  Phooey.

But, talk to me in August, when they'll be sweltering and we'll be living la vita bella in our own lush, green wonderland of pleasantly-warm.  [Cue maniacal laughter.]

    And I can't believe that we have had 80 degree weather for 5 days straight...in the middle on March...in VERMONT!!!

    I wouldn't be surprise if we see snow on Easter :)

    April 2 and 63 degrees and sunny! All I desire right now is a nice, sunny Easter day in the PNW -- for my annual Sunday School Easter treasure hunt extravaganza! So, pray with me for that wee measure of grace, my smug sunny springy March friends, will ya?

    Hugs!
