Officially, the "first day of spring" was over a week ago, so Shawna and I weren't especially surprised when we woke up last Saturday to blue skies and sunny weather. We even decided to put on our walkin' shoes and stroll down to Subway for lunch a few miles down the road.

 

But as we wolfed our chipotle steak foot-long and headed back home, the skies grew dark and it began raining. Buckets. As we finally arrived back home and sloshed dejectedly up our driveway, the rain turned to snow and it didn't stop until Sunday afternoon.

 

The folks in Seattle say the snow didn't "stick", but up here on Redmond Ridge we were singing a different tune. I even shoveled my driveway. Check out the pic to see the tulips blooming sadly in the snow on March 30th... ten days into "spring".

 

Talk to you soon,
