After a week of rain and snow in the valley - and over two feet of snow in the mountains - the sun finally came out for us on Saturday. This made for a decent late-season ski day for H. It was a cool start but blue bird skies meant the sun came through nicely as the morning wore on. Pretty much everything was open and it wasn't that busy, plus the fact that it had been cold and snowy all week meant that the conditions stayed decent - it didn't go into the freeze/thaw cycle that is prevalent in spring.
Milton and A decided to continue to ignore any yardwork (it's still too early for that, I think, seeing how it was only 36F when the sun came up) and did the Dimple Dell loop. We got to see all our usual early morning dog-walk friends (Betty, Loki, Red and Molly) and Milt cadged dog cookies from three different people. When we got home, it was still cool but the sun was strong, so Milton was able to take up his neighborhood watch position in the driveway. Indoors, A made another apricot crumble and some chai spice cupcakes, vacuumed and - perhaps prematurely - started switching the closets over from winter to summer wear. It really probably is too soon but the SLC forecast is going to be in the 70s in the coming week and it's hard to not get excited about that.
