Snow is a four letter word

Saying for the Day-Spring, summer, and fall fill us with hope; winter alone reminds us of the human condition.- Mignon McLaughlin

In the name of Global Warming I want to lodge a protest. Just tell me what office of the government I should send it to. I have been promised Global Warming. I have been promised Spring.
Yesterday it looked like I was finally getting what I was promised. For most of the day there was a beautiful light rain. I could almost see my flowers growing. It was wonderful . But last night just before I went to bed I looked out the window and that wasn’t rain that was coming down. It was great big flakes of the worst four letter word in our vocabulary. It was snow. It hurts to say it. It hurts to type it. I feel betrayed.
Snow! This is Spring. Spring is not snow time. This morning I looked out and the field behind the house is all white. O! I know the man on TV said it will all melt by noon but you know how often he’s right. Even if it does melt my day is ruined.
I have an abnormal hatred of snow.
So I want to lodge a protest. All you Global Warming people stand up and deliver. I checked and the last eight years have actually been colder than average. This one set record cold days in Neenah. That simply isn’t fair. You can’t promise me one thing and give me another.
Shame on you Al Gore.
#### News from Pigeon Falls-The little town in my basement where the trains still run, dragons fly, and life is back to normal. It snowed in Pigeon Falls yesterday. It really snowed, blizzard quality snowed. People living out on the farm roads didn’t even get plowed out until noon. There was no school. The kids thought it was great. This, of course, is nothing new for the Upper Peninsula. They have had snow storms in July. But people were hoping that the weather might give them a break.
Despite the weather the Museum Board met last night. Their matching funds have been approved and they wanted to get started on the renovations. They plan on having much of the work done by volunteers. That way the grant money can be used for materials and they can make it stretch.
They also decided to have one room set up to illustrate the mining and logging industries. They are interviewing people who worked years ago in these industries and getting the interviews as little videos. They also have asked Bob Dawsone who is a master story teller to tell stories of the old mine disasters on video. People going into the room can see the video that interests them. They will also video the last mine and lumber mill in action. They have great plans for the exhibit.
Petrovich is donating two computers with huge screens. The screens will display the Coptic driblet and when a person pushes a button it will dissolve into English. It should be very impressive.

I spent much of the morning watching Betty clean the kitchen. She also changed the water filter on the refrigerator.In the afternoon it was back to the basement. We now think that sometime next week we can get back to working on the train layout. I came up and visited all my links. One of them had this sight wehere you could have your picture Warholized so I did and it will be the closing picture today. Just as I was about to sign off Pennie called. She was visiting a client and somebody backed into her car. Now I need a breathing treatment. It's been a long day.
