Annoyed – that on April 10th at 6:45 am the wonderful deep drenching spring rain turned to heavy wet snow before my eyes. I don’t have a picture for this post because I was too annoyed to take one – you’ll just have to imagine the soggy, cold, icy slop of it and feel my blues.
Happy – to be annoyed because this is all as it should be. We live here, where the weather is inconvenient, unpredictable, often violently extreme, but never never dull.
Here’s Chris Hadfield’s post of the Great Lakes at dawn, taken Easter morning. Note the streamer covering the base of the Bruce Peninsula, where I live – that’s snow.
Nevertheless & whatever the weather, I love this beautiful blue planet.
Thanks, Commander Hadfield, for providing the big picture.
