Those nasty LeprechaunsI think the Leprechauns played a trick on us and decided we needed another taste of winter before they would grant us a real Spring.
We had anywhere from 8-12 inches of snow Saturday and we had to go somewhere with the dogs. Needless to say they are jambed into a dog crate for the 9 mile trip to Cedar Run to get the car.
I don't think they are too happy about the idea of riding in the crate, but they are happier than being left behind.
March is the month most likely to make us wonder why. Why do we live somewhere the plows don't go? It takes so much extra time to load everything into the snowmobile then unload it into the car and do the same thing on the return. Working up here in the winter on cabins takes twice as long and you get half as much done as you do when the roads are clear.
Today upon returning "Sunday", the roads had been somewhat packed down by the weekend snowmobilers. The road is still a little iffy for vehicles other than snowmobiles and there are places where the road is starting to show through...bad for the snowmobiles. Welcome to the March In-betweens. When you don't know how to get in and out until the hour you are ready to go. Things change in an instant with rain, snow, freezing or thawing. Even with the hassle looking at the blue sky with a few white clouds and the beauty of the woods somehow gives you the courage to face it another day.
Mountain Girl Road Advisory: Snowmobile preferred...vehicle possible but dangerous.
