Spring Winter Wonderland

I recently posted all the things I loved about spring and ice, snow and sleet wasn't on that list for a reason. However, I must say I was anxiously anticipating the foot of snow the weatherman had been talking about for days. As usual, the weatherman was wrong and I was disappointed. We did get eight hours worth of freezing rain, sleet and rain on Friday and it finally turned to snow Saturday morning. We probably had less than 4 inches of snow on top of all the ice. We were lucky that we only lost electricity for a very short time.
Yesterday we headed to the big hill in Augusta for sledding and about fifty other people had the same idea. We had a complete blast and before we knew it we had been there for over two hours. I'm very pleased that we actually had one decent snow to have some fun in this year. But now that all the snow is melting away I'm completely ready for Spring.

Going down the hill was much easier.
