That could've been here today. Forecast showed snow at around four for an hour. Showed temps staying at 3 or 4C. Then snow again at around 10pm.

They lied! BIG TIME!
went to an event about 20 min away from work. When I came out around 8pm, there was 2-3 inches accumulated. Drove towards home at about 30 maybe 35 mph. The normal 20 min drive was more like 1 1/2 hours. Since the road from work to home has some goo inclines, decided just to go to work. Not fun, but at least not stranded in the cold or in a ditch.



My.car on the left. Other car there when I arrived (presumeably had someone pick them up or got a ride). This was maybe 20 or 30 minutes later and note how much snow is already on my car.
Roughly around 10 or 10:15.

At 11:20, took these two. Before and after I went to the car.

Yikes.
We're supposed to get some mid-week. Hoping for not much, but... who knows.

Yeah, that's a good dumping for April!

What kind of puzzles are you talking about and one with his name on it? I love puzzles, which is why it piqued my interest.

The puzzles are at www.jigidi.com

I like to solve kitty puzzles, but there are at least a dozen categories, nature, food, cars, art....it's a real rabbit hole that you can get sucked into!

Just what I did and did not need but a great diversion from getting the yard EBR (easter bunny ready) so Scarlett and Catarina have a good time. Of course they will bring those people they live with will be here too. Love yo9ur Trip reports. Thinking I need to do a pre trip for the humongus family trip we are making in October. Lance wants to take the granddaughters, people they live with and son and daughter in law. (yeah losing my mind with planning) Just not as snappy at this kind of thing like you are..lol

Hi Betsey! Long time!

Just what I did and did not need but a great diversion from getting the yard EBR (easter bunny ready) so Scarlett and Catarina have a good time.

That sounds like fun.
We don't do outdoor Easter egg hunts here.
Right now we're having a snow storm, so....

Of course they will bring those people they live with will be here too.

Some things never change.

Love yo9ur Trip reports.

Thanks, Betsey.

That sounds like it's gonna be a lot of fun!
If you do a TR, be sure to let me know.

Well this trip is already turning out to be an adventure. Booking for 10 is interesting. Fortunately I have had lots of exp3erience hearding kittens. Trust me the kittens are easier. When will you be heading back to WDW

So.... is that... a good thing??

It is, I love travelling but I want to be home more than away which was a big draw.

Several, actually.
Whether or not any come to fruition
is up for debate. (Covid willing.)
I have a road trip sometime
between now and September.
I have a weekend in Yellowknife
with kid #2 and a week
in Disney with kid #1
and my Alaska cruise in the fall.

Roadtrip where?

I love Yellowknife, I grew up in the Yukon so went several times.

ahhh Disney, I am hopefully making it to DLR in September.

Who are you cruising with?

Yep. Once tenting
and once in a cabin.

ah I am jealous, I don't think we made it out last year but hopefully will get 2 or 3 trips this summer.

Grand Canyon.

Oh! Had no idea. I’m looking forward to it, even though it’ll be a short trip.

ahhh Disney, I am hopefully making it to DLR in September.

Good luck! Hope you make it.

Who are you cruising with?

Holland America.

ah I am jealous, I don't think we made it out last year but hopefully will get 2 or 3 trips this summer.

I think I’m going out twice this year… cabin and tent again.
