Spring in Minnesota is Not a Smooth Path

I don’t mind that spring has fits and starts here. Last week, it looked like this around here:

A fine coating of spring snow last Tuesday

And today there is this:

Lilies pushing through soil

And over the weekend, there was this:

Yes, Minnesota is a land of unpredictability and that is one of the things I love about living here. Back in March, we had our first tornado warnings and a week later I drove through a snowstorm. This back-and-forth between cold weather and warm weather, snow and rain, keeps me from becoming too complacent, too comfortable.

Just like life in general. Don’t get too comfortable. Be ready for change at any moment.

Happy Monday! What’s new in your neighborhood?
