April Fools x2




So, Mother Nature has decided to mess with us again. Last week we got all relaxed, temperatures were actually into the 50's. Whoa... no more jackets required!! Take off the snow tires, looks like Spring has arrived.


Boy, were we wrong!!


Yesterday, it began to rain. So, when Kayla and I left for work, she had on a rain jacket. 30 minutes later when I arrived at work, it was already snowing. When I left work at 5pm, there was already a foot of snow. By this morining, over 2 feet of snow! GIVE ME A BREAK!!


We could use a little global warming about now.

April Fools

HaHaHa!! April Fools is still around.

This has been the month for fools. First off, on April 1, Scott calls from the road (he is driving down from Fairbanks). He has flipped the truck! He was south of Denali National Park when he hit a patch of ice. The truck spun around, he tried to correct, he spun the other way, then hit a snow berm. Flipped upside down, then back right, but heading the wrong way. He said he felt like he was in the dryer with CD's and change flying everywhere. The truck sustained the damage, not Scott. The truck will be totalled. Scott kept saying he wanted a new 2008 Tundra, but did he have to do it this way??
Mother Nature is also playing a mean April Fools joke. This has been the snowiest April on record. Last Saturday it snowed 4". Then Sunday it snowed another 6". Monday was nice and sunny. The snow started to melt. But then Tuesday it snowed another 6". I tell you, I usually enjoy April, but not this year!
