Yesterday I finished up with raking leaves on my front yard. This is notable for the simple reason that recent temperatures have been well above normal in southern Manitoba. Almost all of the snow had melted and so I thought to myself, why not finish up with my raking? Well it seems that I picked the right day to do it, because it has been snowing almost all day today, and it looks like we're going to be getting a lot of that white stuff over the next few days. Oh well... the unseasonably warm weather was fun while it lasted.
