Well that was a crazy couple of weeks. I know we get a lot of snow in Alaska, but I haven't seen that much snow at once in a long time. It just kept coming and coming.....! It has certainly been beautiful. The state declared it an emergency, houses without power for several days, and the state ran out of salt! School was closed for 4 days and we were a couple of hours late here and there...so needless to say this last week has been out of control. Today its hitting 50 and the snow is quickly melting! I know the days are getting longer and days are getting warmer, but I'm about ready for daffodils, ocean swims, and long bike rides.......! Any day now!
