Great News..

The first day of spring is one thing,
and the first spring day is another.
The difference between them is sometimes as great as a month.~Henry Van Dyke

 Great news..
It is spring.

Not here..
 but somewhere in the world.

We are in the midst of a "Spring Storm".
Can somebody explain the difference to me
between a spring and winter storm?

Please?

Some images from this week..

Blowing snow

Even the sheep are running from old man winter.

There is a vehicle under the snow...

This was that one nice day in march,

when you think spring might be on the way,
only to have those happy thoughts crushed by another dump of snow and minus 22 in the morning.

"No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn."~Hal Borland

I personally, do not think Hal Borland ever lived in northern Alberta!
