Another Snowy Sunday

Although we had a great dose of Spring this past week which lead to daydreams about grass and flowers and wearing sandals, we woke up to the reality that it's still March in Calgary..... Snow on the ground, covering the recently exposed grass once again. This is our first winter in Calgary where there has been snow on the ground since December. Typically, it snows then the city doesn't plow because they're anxiously awaiting a Chinook. The Chinook comes, melts all the snow that fell and then all the roads are bare until the next snowfall. This year the Chinooks have been less frequent and everyone I talk to is sooooo ready for it to be officially spring! Ironically, it is officially spring now, isn't it? Well, I suppose the best we can hope for now is that a Chinook will blow in quickly and that the melting of this most recent snow will help the older, crusty snow melt faster!


Here's to soon-blossoming flowers and the fresh smell of spring!
