The cold weather is supposed to continue through the weekend. Yesterday afternoon the snow turned to rain. On my way home, the rain turned to hail. Then it wasn't long until it was snowing again. This morning was bright and sunny, but the ground was still covered in snow

All our nice green grass is now freezing! And I couldn't find the cover for my motorbike in time either, so I hope the snow isn't going to hurt the plastic fairings!
It's funny, my parents have a miniature american eskimo dog. When I was home on the weekend and it was gorgeous outside, my dad said "Sage must know something we don't know, because he hasn't started shedding at all yet" Usually by this time, our whole back yard is filled with balls of white fur. But I was playing with him and hugging him and didn't even get a hair on me! Now I know why

Right now it is 3 degrees C... That's 37 degrees F.
I'm sorry it's so dry down there Marilyn! I guess in a way we did need the snow... although I'd rather it be rain! Last weekend we took a drive out to our cabin and noticed large FIRE BAN signs everywhere, so I guess it was pretty dry out there too. It's unusual to have fire bans this early in the year.
