Happy May!
When I was in high school, every spring break the Jenison Bible Youth would pile into a few buses and head south for a week long missions trip. I remember on more than one occasion returning to a white, snowy West Michigan, and then we'd all joke about how it never fails to snow over Spring Break, just to remind us that we may think it's spring, but really, we have no control over when winter ends. Well, that was all well and good, snow in the first week of April, no big deal. But this, this is ridiculous. Yesterday I wore a skirt and flip flops to work and spent my lunch break lying on my mexican blanket on the grass outside the office reading my book. Now, as I sit here on May 1st and look out my window, that same grass is now covered in snow. As far as I can tell summer never really comes to stay in Colorado. I mean in March we had some really warm days, like 70's and I was all excited that maybe spring comes earlier in Colorado. Nope, it just tempts you and then snows the next day. So maybe Michigan has long, hard winters, but at least for the most part when spring springs it stays sprung.
