In Search of Snow

My friends and family back in the Seattle area are buried in snow.  They have been dumped on and their lives have ground to a halt because of it.

We have still had none.

Our weather, of late, has fluctuated between 10*F and 50*F.  When it's been under 32*, it's been dry.  When it gets over the freezing point?  Yup.  It rains.  It has been the kookiest winter, so far.

I think it might be our fault.

We gave Bill some snow shoes for Christmas.  Which would be great... IF THERE WERE SNOW!

I am not actually complaining.  I have been enjoying the mild weather, the dry roads, and being able to wear my canvas shoes from time to time.

We are just afraid that this might mean a cold, wet Spring is in store.  With my luck, it will snow on my marathon on June 9th.  'Snow in June?!?' you say?  It has been known to happen on the rare occasion.

But, really, it better not!
