Snowfall

Snow fell in Oconomowoc today. Saturday we yanked weeds out of the garden and saw boats and boats and trailers skittering about as we did errands. Temps were at or above 70 degrees. April is a transitional month. The field fires and winds of just a few days ago are almost a forgotten memory as area residents bundle up AGAIN now and slop through puddle-filled craters and wet, grey snowy rain like weather. This too will change.

Wild and Windy

It sure has been windy the past few days. White caps on Labelle, howling noisy wind. Good days for hair spray. Not the time to leave your car door or storm door open. It's as if the door would pop off. Ouch. Winds bring change just like Spring. But soon the wind will settle, the skies will go from grey to blue and the roar of the lawnmower and the aroma of gas will surround you subdivision.
