Winter, Extended

Since we live in Virginia, usually by this time of year the trees are starting to bud, the early flowers are blooming, and the cold and snow is becoming a distant memory. Alas, that is not this year! Right now, it's beautiful - almost 70 degrees, sunny, light breeze but big changes are coming our way. We're under a winter storm watch for tomorrow evening into Monday afternoon, supposed to get 5"+ of snow. This is the cold, snowy winter that never ends. It has been much colder than usual with lots of "big" snowstorms. Even I, as much as I love snow, am ready for spring. At least you can start to see the trees getting that red blush of buds and we have been seeing green fields on the drive to Massanutten. Soon enough spring will be here and winter will finally be over! That also means that snowboard season is done for another year, just another couple of weeks.
