Spring Storm

It was snowing this morning—tiny moist flakes that stick to the grass but not to the sidewalks or the roads.


It's now turned into a chilly rain/snow mix, so different from yesterday when I took this photo at the end of a walk...


Both of my men were depressed upon waking this morning.

“Who would expect snow in May?” the teenager demanded as I admonished him for leaving his jackets in his locker and wearing only a t-shirt to walk to school.

“We live in Wyoming!!!” I retorted.

Gees!

One would “think” that they would have finally realized by now what living at 72,000 plus feet means: We get weather that is totally out of sync with the seasons!

(Then again, maybe it’s us, and not the weather, that are out of sync given that this is 72,000 plus feet after all.)

Yeees…snow in May can be “ugh” mumbling inducing I will admit.

Living here, however, at this juncture—at least for me—is still very much an adventure.

And if it weren’t, I might be right there with my men—whining. 

Despite my "adventurous" outlook, I think I'll keep this going while working here at home this afternoon... 


Hope your weather is not inclement...
