Spring in Canada

Charles Dickens said it best:

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,...it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness...."

This time of year truly epitomizes the complexities that Mother Nature can throw at us.  I insured and rode my motorbike yesterday yet got caught between avalanches in the ambulance on my way to an adjacent town to pick up a baby.

Some pick-up trucks have dirt bikes in the back; some have snowmobiles.

The roads are filling up with cyclists wearing shorts and the local ski hill is still open.

Baseball is overlapping with hockey.

I drove by a house that had a lady working in her flowerbed not ten feet from where the snowblower was parked in the driveway.

Enigmatic.
