WTF? This is "Spring"?

There's more snow as usual this morning.  April 1st was zero degrees here at 7:00 am.  It's getting old.  You don't hear many people saying it's beautiful when it snows any more.  The only advantage is that the new snow overs up the dog shit I haven't gotten hauled away yet.  Just when you think you've got it all, another layer of snow melts and viola!  new shit appears!  It's depressing as I thought I had kept up with Roland this winter.  The fat black dog is truly a shitting machine!

There are three funerals or memorials this week.  We have lost a lot of people again this winter.  Maybe it's just because I'm old but the new people moving in don't have the qualities of education, intelligence, and adventure that the old ones did.  A lot of depression hoovers around my area and a lot of cabin fever.

If it isn't grim enough today, I read we have plague in Boulder.  Plague!  In better times that wouldn't have worried me so much.  I would have counted on local governments to deal with what shouldn't be a big problem.  With the amount of idiocy and corruption in the present government, it becomes something to really worry about.

The two inches of top onions and herbs that showed yesterday are covered with snow.  The sky is filled with lenticular clouds that indicate high winds blowing in another storm tonight.  Shit!  

Where is that glowing yellow ball in the sky that came last year?

The snow won't stop, will it? I still love it. Before March, we'd only gotten 25" all season...all season! March, we got 18", more than half what we got the rest of the winter. We got about 6" the other night. Sounds dirty, don't it?
