Spring in Minnesota

It is April 20th today. April. A popular saying I remember from elementary school says, "April showers bring May flowers." Everyone in Minnesota has been complaining that spring has been late in coming. While we had a glorious weekend in the high 70's, lately the temperatures have dropped and the skies have been cloudy. Where are the showers to bring the flowers? This morning, I woke to the sounds of birds chirping and flying around. I smiled liking the sounds of spring. But when I opened my eyes and looked out the window I was unprepared for the sight that greeted me - falling snow! Let's just say I am NOT happy! Good thing I'm off for South America next week!
