    Strange weather indeed. We've had very little snow either, so far, this winter.

    All we have had is dustings and flurries. If you piles it all up, we may have gotten 1 inch total. Most of what we have had is lake affect snow coming off of Lake Michigan when the wind is out of the northwest. We had flurries and sunshine this afternoon.

    My dad & brother used to work in a deep-dig area near me. While they were there several fossils were discovered, the most readily identifiable were seashells, though the dig was a drive of over 2 hours from the ocean. (I still have some of those). The strange shaped "lumps" were shipped to a lab and determined to be fossilized monkey dung. Yeah, in Western Washington.
    I guess that's all to say, it could be stranger!
    Oh, and the weather folks say we are about to get a week of the coldest weather in over 50 years. Better go give the bunnies extra straw!!!

    It missed us totally on the coast. Next week is supposed to be in the 70's. Hope it doesn't give the spring plants a false start!
