Spring or Snow?

The temperature rose to 69 degrees on the pond today - the sun was bright as I drove home from work. It had me thinking of Maverick's baseball team and their practices and the season looming large on the horizon. Spring was on my mind!

Then As I settled in to check my email a note from my sister popped in. Up in Chicago they are expecting another 4 to 8 inches of snow! And she sent this picture of her house before the next round of snow began. I have to admit I have never seen that much snow at one time. Let me add I don't really want too either.





Don't misunderstand, I like snow. I like to look out the window at it if I can stay inside with warm clothes and hot cider. It is especially pretty up here at the lake. Here is a photo from our back porch of a little snow we received November 30, 2006.

Yeah, tomorrow it won't be as warm as today but I got a taste of spring today and I am looking forward to warmer days again soon. However tonight wind advisories have been issued. After all, this is Oklahoma - where the wind comes sweeping down the plain.
