Heading South for Spring Break








Some people head to beaches for spring break, but if you live in Fargo/Moorhead (or Siberiasted as it translates into a little-known ancient dialect of Norwegian) then spending the week in Iowa during March is just like being somewhere tropical. We have enjoyed 70* temps, four different parks in three days, and some St. Patrick's Day fun with friends. And in F/M, our yard still lies beneath 5 feet of snow. We (or me, Joel) may not be returning...potential homebuyers are welcome to present offers for our Moorhead estate. Included in the contract will be the Permasnow, something nobody told me about prior to relocating. Apparently it is "normal" to have snow on the ground for 9 months out of the year...

Holy crap----- somebody stock piled up on bitterness in Iowa. Snow? Big deal. Get your sandbags ready for the flood, Peterson. Time to plug up that drain! :)
