Ice Melt

I awoke this morning to a welcome site, much less snow and ice that what was around last night. I believe it rained most of the night and it really is fantastic to see much of the ice gone. It was warm all day today and is supposed to be like this tommorrow too. Spring is just a little ways away and I for one can't wait.

What's with the weather

It has been freezing here forever, it is the middle of May and we are still using the heat. Last weekend we got snow, yes the white frozen stuff what's with that. I can't get over it, usually by this time in the spring the trees are turning green and we have blooms everywhere but this year there isn't any sign of buds anywhere. I can even remember that I had mowed the lawn at least 3 times by the long weekend last year and this year, not even close. Will spring let alone summer ever come this year?

Spring Time

It's five degrees at the end of January, there is barely a site of snow anywhere on the ground it's beginning to feel like spring here in Nova Scotia. Normally we don't see this type of situation until mid-March so it really is strange. I'm sure we are still in for a dose of winter, it will come back and I think it will be harder to accept when it happens because we are being teased by the warmth.
