Just read in the news that it was five years ago today when our president, the great denier, declared a covid emergency. So I looked back at the blog on that date and it's talking about the weather during the month. We had a lot of snow, almost a foot, and some cold, it hit -42 earlier. But nothing about covid. So maybe it wasn't such a big deal back then. I remember we went into town and got the vaccine shots at the community center. It was big production, where you had to sign up in advance and then show up early, check in and wait in the parking lot before you were admitted at your time slot. Quite a production. Now we get our covid and flu shots at the same time at the local Freddys. No big deal, almost inconceivable now.
The weather's been great lately, almost perfect for dog drivin' and just bein' outdoors.
Headin' out into the valley, clear and cold, just like March should be.
Up the hill onto the ridge on the other side of the valley.
Headin' back up our ridge and over the top for home. This is the weather we wait all winter for, to run dogs and enjoy the times that only spring can bring.
