Wasn't sure where to post this, but this has been an incredible day. I was without power for 10-1/2 hours ON APRIL 11, Easter week!
I trudged out and shook the wet, heavy snow off all my tender trees, lilacs, etc. Many trees broke branches and took out power lines all over my part of the city---sounded like rifle fire.
It has not snowed on this date here ever...not since such records have been kept. Over in PDX they had 2 inches downtown, and that broke their record for this date. That record goes back to 1870.
We cooked and heated water on the grill. My house got very cold and I got really cranky. However, I did manage to clean up and organize my sewing room. Just the other day I was enjoying sunshine and hiking at the coast.
We still might be in for some more snow Tuesday night...not this much though. I just can't like it even though it's pretty----it's spring, Mother Nature, you jerk!!!!
