Is it Really May?

May is finally here! Yaaay! I don't like April at all, for a plethora of reasons, so I am always very happy when May arrives.

It's Springtime, right? Even some flowers are blooming, so it must be! Except here in Colorado we're still in the middle of winter -- at least for today. Yep, believe it or not, we've been under a blizzard warning all day! Luckily we haven't received any measurable snow, but my son said it is most definitely a blizzard where he lives (30 minutes from here). He said you can hardly even see to drive and there's snow everywhere! Jeepers!

Even though we didn't get any snow, we've had hellacious winds all day. It snapped one of our trees in half! It was about 18 feet tall and 4 or 5 inches in diameter. Even bigger trees have fallen in town -- great big ones! One poor guy had his Suburban crunched by one. Gnarly! Oh, and did I mention that it is FUH-REEZING outside?!

Fortunately this big ol' storm system will be gone by tomorrow when my daughter and I are taking our first road trip in the new car! Fun! :) Hope you have fun Saturday, too!

May, Spring Storms, Wind, Blizzards
