False Start to Spring

Last weekend, the weather was in the 60s and 70s and I quickly started to think that it was possible that we were nearly done with winter and that maybe the groundhog was right this year.  Maybe it really would be an early spring.  But, no.  Punxsutawney Phil should be fired.

On Sunday night, the temperatures started getting colder and now we have a layer of frozen ice below about 1.5 inches of snow again.  I really am ready to be done with winter and head into spring, but I guess it's just not time yet.  I did take this opportunity to introduce Ledger to the joys of eating snow... YUM!   One of my friend suggested flavoring the snow with chocolate, but I couldn't bring myself to taint the pure goodness of mother nature.  So he had it plain.  He loved it!!  And continued to eat it until his little hands were frozen and bright red.

  1. You should have given the little tyke a SPOON! LOL Not nearly as much fun as eating with his hands, though, cold or not. :)
