Just got home from skiing. This picture was Tuesday morning when we were heading to ski. Snowed the next two days too. They haven't had their usual amount of snow this winter, but we got lucky and the skiing was great!

I remember that song. I was thinking of a documentary that we were shown in school, Springtime in The Rockies. It's about all the Flora and Fauna in the spring.

Glad that you had enough snow to enjoy skiing. Summer must be arriving there too. Here it is a hot summer this year, quite a bad heat and heat wave. Is that your car covered with snow in the picture?

Yes that's our car. We've had some warm spring weather. Even in the town where we stayed, snow was all gone before this big snowfall.

Here, it is much more like summer away from the mountains. The ground was bare Monday, evening and that snow in the picture happened overnight.

Snow is nice if you do not have to drive in it.
