Day: April 5, 2007

  •                                               The weather in Cleveland has been bipolar, excuse the pun. Tuesday it was a warm spring day; sunny, breezy t-shirt temperatures, around 80F/25C. I took my mom to the Dollar Store & then we stopped for a late lunch.

         Yesterday I was out running errands bundled up in thermies, gloves & heavy coat in the 38F/6C chill as an Arctic Front moved in. Snowflakes began falling as I finished up & continued the rest of the night. The ground was covered, barely a grass sprig poking out from the top of the snow. Wintery gusts blowing snow off the rooftops & slippery roads. All of this in less than 24 hours. Just when I was getting used to the freedom & excitment of the spring atmosphere. And so many trees were flowering, as well as crocuses, daffodils & periwinkles. Now they have snow on their petals & shivering roots.
