Green Christmas, White Easter

March 31, 2008 at 3:26 PM

What a winter... NO snow, not a single flake. As soon as the "official" beginning of spring arrived, it started snowing and continued to do so for at least a week.

Returning home from an enjoyable quartet session last Tuesday took more than an hour (compared to the usual 30 minutes) due to driving snow (what a misnomer) and slippery roads.

We played the "Ave Maria" by Karl May and Borodin Nr. 2.
