Welcome Seanl !
One thing we Canadians can all agree on is the crazy weather we have had this winter. Glad to hear your snow is gone. We are going to spend the morning opening up the Gastropod!

I didn't take any pictures but we got about 4 inches of snow on Easter, as well, here in New Brunswick. The week before we had 80 degree F (26 degrees C). crazy weather. I was just getting the Pod set up after winter and bang snow.  Oh well its gone now and temp is coming back up.

We had a mild winter here as well with hardly any snow so a dump like the one on Thursday was fun for the kids, brought lots more moisture for the trees and isn't going to hold up our camping trips any longer.
Most of the snow is gone already and this week is to warm up again.
It sure was a snarly, wet mess driving Thursday morning though!

Ahh, the fresh smell of mowed grass, visions of sugar plums dancing in my head  BUT you get a better cardio workout shoveling snow, unless you actually own a push mower then it depends on how long your driveway is  X how much snow you are moving vs. how big your yard is and how long your grass is.

  Loved the pictures of the snow covering everything, it makes the world look so fresh and clean.........just so it is somewere else in the world and not here. Don't know which is worse....shoveling snow or mowing grass.   Goose

Brrrrr, I got chills looking at those pictures.  They're multiplyin'.  (Sorry, my wife is a big Grease fan)
 
We only got to see that scene once all winter.  Briefly.  On Halloween (which cancelled it).  Cool

Let's hope that the snow disappears soon for our northern friends.  It doesn't look like fun in the least.

For us, it's been one crazy winter.  My crabapple tree is in full bloom now, which is several weeks ahead of schedule.

So we can assume you're not camping?  (Just a rhetorical question) LOL
