We had some very nice and mild days in February and rumors of an early "break up" a term used by Alaskans referring to the melting snow and the arrival of spring. A week ago we only had about 4 inches of snow on the ground and the potential for an early spring seemed possible, but after 3 back to back March snow storms we now have over a foot or more of the white stuff!! In addition to the snow, the cold temperatures have returned too. The past 2 mornings we have been -15 or colder and only teens for daytime high temps. Spring soccer started on Monday so I guess we know why winter came back. I told Brandon to get used to indoor conditioning cause Mother Nature didn't want them enjoying the great outdoors just yet. I can't complain too much about the snow cause it did bring moose to visit the back yard and allow me to snap a few photos. I love the backyard wildlife!! Simply amazing!!
