Let it Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow

That song was on my mind yesterday as I watched the fat, heavy flakes come down in the morning. I don't think I've ever seen it snow on my birthday. Definitely a first for me. Fortunately, the snow did not stick around long. By afternoon the sun was out and there was no trace of snow. This has been a crazy spring. You know the old saying, "the snow has to fall 3 times on a robin's tail before it's really spring." Well, the snow has fallen on the robin's tails about 10 times!

Let's look on the positive side. First, our grass is very green and we haven't had to turn on the sprinklers once. Second, we won't worry about water shortage this summer. All the run-off will fill our reservoirs. Third, because it's been cooler than normal, I haven't had to turn on the air conditioner either. So...snow in May can be good :)
