We are still waiting on spring. The six plus inches of snow we are receiving today is certainly not a welcome sight. As you will notice from the picture below, we have not gotten around to taking down our Christmas lights yet. This picture could so easily be from the Christmas season, but sadly, today is the 18th day of April!!
These views from the farm might actually be considered pretty if taken during the Christmas season…or maybe even if it were February.
But it is not Christmas and it is not February. Did I mention it is the middle of April?!
Snow is not necessarily uncommon at this time of year in Minnesota, but this winter has been very long and we have had very few spring-like days.
The good news is that snow does not last long this time of year because the sun’s rays are much too powerful. So, if the sun does ever come out, we know the snow will melt quickly. I will cling to that thought..that’s all I can do at the moment to stay positive.
I hope the weather is better in your part of the country, wherever that might be!
