This is the First Day of Spring

March 22nd.  The Spring Solstice. This was officially the first day of Spring.

It didn't feel like spring.  It did a week and a half ago.  Then an arctic blast came swooping in.  Then it went away.  And then 15-20cm of snow came through to extend the ski season.








It was probably the best skiing conditions I've ever enjoyed in Ontario.  The snow was fresh and powderiffic!
It made the trails through the trees that were icy last week.  So much easier this week.







 Falling in the white stuff was okay.









 But you still have to try and avoid a tree.









And it was the first time we had been to Spring Splash event at Sir Sam's.
Next Year...Kieran may have a go.  After seeing all the kids do it.  We know what we need to bring if he does try it out. There's no way I'd do this.
