Its almost hard to believe how wrong Wiarton Willie got it.

One of his species emerged here yesterday - don't think he was very impressed with the earlier proclamations when there was still snow on top of his pile of railway ties!

That a Canadian railway would take out a half page ad apologizing for getting behind moving grain

Gophers here are hungry and in a complete state of confusion.

I know I was hoping for a slow thaw but I didn't think it was going to be this slow, maybe best for my ground moisture conditions. A bit of snow forecast for here tomorrow, "rain" would have been nice, it usually stays were it falls. Oh well.....

A friend has a sale Friday and I can't imagine getting equipment ready. Golfed last year already on plus 17 days. Ok, hit a ball around.

You can sled anywhere anytime north of the valley.

Last year had two drills one getting set up other getting new hoses and I think we had both almost ready.

But I do remember one year the trees didn't get leaves until June.

Frost years every night cooled off so much and you wore a hoodie most days. A bunny hug for Sask guys.

So we shake an unwilling participant awake out of a winter-long nap; his color already indicates that he's a weird sample of his species, we surround him with lights and cameras and a noisy, laughing crowd snapping his picture before he's seen a comb or food - and THEN expect him to give an accurate weather report on a minute's notice with the world watching....

It's almost hard to believe that anyone would put any stock in what he says! LOL!

No surprise here -

Come on burnt, have a little fun. We all know it's bullshit.

I'm one of the first people to scoff at folklore, but I humor it!

Except for the lights, cameras and noisy laughing crowd you have described me to a T

Didn't you hear Al Gore? He has already assured us that this cold is most definitely caused by global warming, and is exactly what was expected to happen. I'm not making that up either. Personally, I thought I liked the concept of global warming, and was all in favor, but after experiencing it lately, I've changed my mind, I think I will change sides and join Suzuki and Chuck campaigning against global warming.

hard to believe seemingly educated people believe con men like him and colonel suzuki

Should use appropriate emoticons when posting I guess. It was totally all in light vein - or is it all in vain?

Okay, in case you missed that one - it was another weak attempt at humor...

Hard to believe it felt like spring this morning, only minus 12 . Warmest morning in a long long time .
