So, got up this morning to 30 degrees at the Aerie (2100' elevation) and a quarter to half inch of snow that started at about 2000 feet and went up the hill. And on the deck, that snow clearly showed the imprints of bear paws. *sigh* At least the bruin found nothing to eat and moved on.
The snow melted before 9 AM ant the sun is attempting to break through the clouds. It's interesting to sit here and watch patches of sunlit ground move across the landscape.
It's not supposed to warm up much beyond 60 until late in the week. Sounds like good weather to get back on the hill with the chainsaw. But the gas crews were up there yesterday and I can see more orange flagged markers. I'll have to keep my eyes open for any drilling and explosives placed for the 3-D seismic testing they are/will be doing.

The Mets and the Cards are playing again tonight. This one is to be broadcast on ESPN so, yeah, I'll be tuned in to watch. I imagine lots of guys slept late today!

Wonder of wonders, ESPN will be broadcasting that game here, as well. We normally get only Mariner games. (ptui!)
Our temps have stabilized at seasonal norms again (30/night to 45/day degrees). So the snow is melting again. Bears are waking up here, too - a few have been spotted in the city parks along the base of the Chugach Mtns).
