A beautiful sunny day today. It was 3 degrees Celsius and dry. Rain is forecast for Easter Sunday though.

What is that, Patty?


We're finally getting some proper rain. We didn't get as much as usual this past winter, but I think the heavens made up for it with a little extra snow.

Anyway, we've had a nice steady rain for a couple days now and this morning it reminded me of my college literature professor posting in chalk what he said was the original April showers/May flowers poem:

When in April the sweet showers fall
That pierce March's drought to the root and all
To bathe each vein in that powerful liqueur
And generate in May a flowerful recur

~Translated from Geoffrey Chaucer‘s The Canterbury Tales
