I can remember in Prince George waiting and waiting for this to happen, it usually wasn't until the beginnings of May that the snow would be definitely leaving, albeit coated with a dark grime of road grit and sand. Then we used to wait for the ice on the lakes to break through and that was usually mid-June. I will take any sign of spring be it little or bit.

And maybe not for a while yet. I think I may be one of the few who think that Spring still has snow in the picture. We usually can't count on it no longer snowing until sometime in May. I've even been hiking on July 4th and we got stuck in a blizzard...RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1394161184343172403.post-76507135188226591212014-03-02T17:26:49.502-05:002014-03-02T17:26:49.502-05:00Karen, you found a puddle!! are you sure you didn&...Karen, you found a puddle!! are you sure you didn't cheat with a blowtorch?
