Out Like a Lion

The old saying is not accurate this year.  I don't think it was accurate last year either.  Maybe its just a Nordegg thing...?  If March comes in like a Lion, its supposed to go out like a Lamb.  This year it was in and out like a Lion.  We had some cold weather and snow at the beginning of March, and now at the end we had a storm roll through on March 30 and dump about 3/4 of an inch of fresh snow.  Before that there was no snow, and we had been experiencing some really mild temperatures.
Leonard was back out on March 30th and it only took him and his helper about half a day to finish up the rough in.  They ran all the furnace ducts and got everything with the heating system roughed in and ready to be energized.  They also finished up the plumbing rough in, including a couple of outside water taps.
Margarit came out in the morning and joined Helena and I.  We had a nice dinner together in the evening and spent a cozy evening in the cottage, listening to the wind howl and watching the snow fall.  The next morning dawned clear and sunny... but cold.  We shall see what April Fool's Day brings...
