a funny thing happened on the way to spring...

The weather is a tricky thing. When I was younger, I put faith in the calendar to enforce the temperature; that in the "spring" months it would not be winter - that sort of thing. I'm far from that naive any more. March can be nasty and wintery and make you feel very cold. However, I still stand by "wintery" - I still believe that March is not quite as bad as the winter, it just feels bad because our expectations are different. However, the numbers do not really lie. This is a cold winter day. If this were a day in January, it would be a cold January day. If we were on the north pole, it would be a cold north pole day. That's not supposed to be my March in Regina.
