That's a sign of spring as surely as Indian Paintbrush and Bluebonnets popping up.

Maybe Earl will fix the bug and this image will come in

up in March. Snow was melting and people had started thinking about opening up the ice cream shops again when up came another huge blizzard the first of April. We all took it in stride. After all,
folks there would hate to miss the typical 200 to 300 inch snowfall that's typical there every year including the present.

disclaimer. I don't live there anymore, left my ex and my scoop behind. (A scoop is the preferred method of snow removal, like an oversized dust pan.)
