I have sometimes said a quiet prayer something like this, "Thanks that Grandpa Strong decided to settle here." I was saying other words today after work while I was tramping through the yard in a snowstorm looking for the laundry that blew off the clothesline. Couldn't he have gone a bit further west, over a couple of mountain ranges, to, say, the Okanagan?

well, if it's small comfort-our temperature is lower than normal and we saw a few flakes falling. But nothing on the ground.
Still it seems ridiculous to not have had winter, but spring never comes!
Some sort of weird variation on Narnia
If he was going to keep going, he might as well have made it to the coast! No snow here (although there was a wicked windstorm last night)
That is a lovely prayer. Sniff.
And those mountains were BIG! Rest a while in RMH!
I suppose that many of our blog members would not even be alive if he hadn't stopped here.
I feel as though Mother Nature is playing a delayed April Fools on us. But on the other hand it makes me really happy for the two weeks in Costa Rica, which are coming up soon!! Take that you Okanaganites.
I am also glad that this weather is happening now, if it has to, rather than last weekend.
I will put the invite out that you are always welcome to relocate to the Okanagan
You mean we don't have to stay here? But this is where Grandpa Strong stopped.
