It's pouring today, but I'll excuse the weather because of the sheer fact that it's WARM, and the rain is washing away those last little piles of snow... I hope. Austin and Ben are still in mourning for the winter, while I am exuberant about the possibility of Spring.
On our walks this week, Ben made it a point to roll, dig, and eat snow from every little patch of snow he could find.
Austin still is going on the AccuWeather chat forums wondering if a March storm could come our way. Apparently, the snow geeks on the forums are still discussing epic April storms from years past. But there's no activity on the weather models that give anyone any hope... and Austin finally admitted last week that the snow is over for the year.
It's been so cold and snowy here that we have not had any rain since December until yesterday. We had above average precipitation, of course, but none of it in the form of rain. It's oddly comforting to hear the missing rain on our metal roof at night, and thankfully not too much seems to have leaked through our roof... yet. :)
