This is Spring?

Great Grandma flew back home from Florida yesterday. Guess what was waiting to greet her?

That's right: snow! And lots of it. It continues to fall today, and there is no significant weather warm up in sight.

It's been meteorological spring since March 1, and today is the spring equinox, which marks the first day of spring on the calendar. You'd never know it by looking outside here. Some places in the world are already enjoying spring-like weather. China's cherry blossoms are apparently blooming beautifully. But...

Okay, so this is an exaggeration. Mom wishes they'd plowed the roads this nicely yesterday, though. It took our snowplow service until the overnight hours to finally come and plow out our driveway. Not cool.

Somebody Mom knows on Facebook posted this gem this morning. Ha ha.
