Slush Days

As if the freak snow we had at the end of February wasn’t enough, it tried all of Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday to snow again! Our house was right at the snow line The boys were determined to find snow, and hiked up the hill in search of the white stuff. They found it up towards the water tower.

We did get some at home, but not too much until Thursday. Even so, we all went up the hill to try some sledding. And while the wet late-winter snow was perfect for packing but not so great for slippin’ and sliding.

Wow! That's quite a bit, we just had mixed showers which were quite heavy... I don't Ol Man Winter, is trying his best to hang on....

I did see a tree that was blooming yesterday over in Bellevue, it was the first sign of spring I've seen this year.
