Life with the Three Crazy Dogs

The past few days we are enjoying the temperatures in the 40’s.  I don’t mind the 40’s.  It’s perfect for me.  There were occasional flurries on Wednesday and Thursday with gale force winds.  The winds really put a damper on the weather.  It makes it extra chilly.  Can’t walk out there without a jacket with that 50 mph winds.

The “best” weather will be next week.  Get the sarcarsm??  The national weather guys forecast snow from the West to the midwest by Tuesday.  The yard, ground, roads, sidewalks, every thing is drying so well.  Mother nature wants to dump an expected 10 inches of snow on us.  Man, I want the dry grounds.  I’m tired of cleaning the dogs after their walks, or even coming in from the yard.  I took the boys to the trails early in the morning (7 a.m.) on Sat and this morning.  It’s very chilly but it’s nice to walk on “solid” ground.  No muddiness greeting us.

So, March is definitely roaring out like a lion.  The trees and shrubs are budding.  But…this is Minnesota, the weather is very unpredictable.  The good thing about spring snow fall is it will melt really quickly because of the warm ground and the sun is sitting higher now.  Yes, the sun is really warm now.  I’m putting on sun screen already.  Amazing how I used to worship the sun, but now, hah, no way I’m out there without my SPF30 or higher.
