Typical day in South Dakota

It's been a looooonnnnnggg winter in South Dakota. 

Record snowfall --  record low temps --- like I said.  Long winter.

Today was making up for a beautiful day.  I think I saw the thermometer setting at 42 degrees!  It was sunny and pleasant.

It was a little breezy, but hey!  This IS South Dakota - ya gotta expect that!


So after my last day at the call center -- insert little happy dance --  I did some errands uptown and went to the local winter show. 

You know how it is... you get to talking, you see someone you hadn't seen in a while, and before you know it, it's 4:30 and you've got a heck of alot less time left in the day to do the packing for tomorrow's craft fair.

So I leave the gymnasium and find this.
Actually not this right out of the gym, but you get the picture :)  Poor little Buzz's behind is sticking out in the wind and wet.

We now have a full blown blizzard going on.  42 and sunny, to rain, then freezing rain, and now snow coming down violently within 2 hours...

Nice.

We may be a little late for the craft show tomorrow....

Sigh....

That's a snappy pants slap down - a mean trick from Jack Frost!

Ugh!.. our snow has finally mostly cleared away thanks to the rain. But March can still pack a mean punch.. hoping for a mild spring.

Hope you have a successful craft fair..
