Glacier

So there i was, exploring the glacier... okay, kidding, it's not. It's just an area of pretty deep snow (this was over a foot deep, close to two feet) that had melted back but reminded me of a glacier. Maybe i was influenced by a recent Nova episode on glaciers, which was very interesting, especially the time lapse video. It's been nicely warm, for us at least, in the 40f area. I'm not relaxing though, i know from living here too long that there will most likely be a big snow storm that puts a lot of snow back on the ground. I should post a picture of that, those late march or early april snow storms.

Meanwhile, there are people running around without jackets and wearing shorts. This is weather that is at most 50F. Yep, nordic people moved here originally.
