I woke up to snow on the ground. My furnace has been running a lot lately. I am hoping that this is the last snow storm of the season. There is a lot of flooding just north of here. People's houses are about to be swept off their foundations and people are having to use boats to get from their houses to non flooded roads. Others are loosing farm animals as the babies get swept away or the mothers lie down and can't get up because of the mud. It's horribly sad and they are expecting 2-3 more crests of the river still this spring.
I guess with that in perspective I don't mind the snow so much... But the extra water is not good for those up north!
Y'all just come to my house for a visit til spring comes to your house. It's 80 degrees here again. I am sweating. Does it ever get that hot there? I used to want to live in Montana, then in Alaska. Now I want to move to Hawaii. Since I turned 50 I am not liking the cold. And we have had extremely cold winters the past 3 years now. I don't know if I can take another one. I hope it warms up soon, Alee.

Oh my Alee... Would that be around the Fargo area? I saw something on the news about the Red River the other day. It's fact though with a lot of snow there will be flooding. Please take care.
We were supposed to be getting about 8-inches today and we were under a weather advisory yesterday, but no snow here in the Upper Peninsula... YET.I think I've aged about 20 years this past winter waiting for spring to arrive.
Snow on the ground...
