White Stuff

It seems we've been posting lately about colours -- going Green with our Blue cart program. And now the sad realization that it's late March in Calgary and there is still lots more white stuff to come.

We've been tricked the last few days with Spring-like temperatures, birds chirping and gardens sprouting their new growth. And then this morning we woke to 5.5 inches (9cm) of SNOW.

The rail and roof were empty yesterday and now...not so much.



Here's hoping for more colours -- the yellow of the sun; the black of the dry pavement, the brown of our sun scorched grass...the only white I want to see if the frame of my Brodie Mountain bike as I hit the trails in Fish Creek park!

We've had our fair share this year. You can keep the white stuff in Alberta. Our spring bulbs are up and flowering. We saw dafodils and crocosis in the yeard(sp?) yesterday. Unfortunately that also means allergies. Think on the bright sides, no itchy eyes, runny noses and other allergy symptoms as long as the white stuff lasts :)
