April Showers
Do April snow showers bring May flowers? Or make us sour. I've put in my order for sunshine and warmth. Snow is moisture. So, even though it's a bit of a downer when snow shows up in April, we know summer will come eventually. I do remember another April, April 20th to be exact. My husband was gone, staying with his mom who had had an operation, and my son and I were handling the lambing. We had a much larger flock then, about 150 ewes, all crammed into the shed barn, and overnight the thermometer dropped to -20, the wind kicked up and snow was blowing in. Snow showers that melt quickly? I'll take them any time.
