Oh Spring, you wily devil you, it seemed that you’d taken a pass this year. Recently with temperatures in the -20 (C) degree range and 23 centimetres of snow, it seemed like you had pulled up your tent stakes and, along with the warmer weather, taken refuge in the warmer southern climes.
Ah, lovely Edmonton, 3 days before the arrival of spring.
Now, gentle readers, we have improved. The mercury is valiantly fighting to get to a positively toasty 4 degrees centigrade above zero. Witness!
Note: You can see the pavement, massive improvement.

These are my ‘stealth’ sandals, they look enough like shoes that I can avoid peoples opprobrium over what they consider to be ‘inappropriate’ footwear for the season.
to (hallelujah!) these:
Woo!
Spring has tentatively arrived in Edmonton. I say tentatively because the forecast calls for a more snow today for tomorrow. Too bad. :) I’ve put the nasty boots and nasty shoe-sies away, and that in my books, is a good day.
Potholer54 does a wonderful job of skewering the creationist stupidity involved with probability, he neatly lays bare the idea that MORE ZEROES = Scientific Fact because god said.
Enjoy. :)
