Gold River Days

Well last weekend was Gold River Days with a western theme. It was a great weekend for the event. It was sunny and hot and most of the town seemed to come out to it. Friday night started with "Gold Rivers Got Talent". A lot of singing and dancing took place. There was a 5 km fun run although I'm not sure if fun and run should be in the same sentence. Saturday started with a free pancake breakfast at 8 am, parade at 11 then the party in the park for the rest of the day. Free BBQ, bounce-a-ramas, dunk tank and soooooo much more. There were more than a few burns that day but all in all I think everyone had fun and it exhausted the kids so parents would be happy.

May

So its spring now and by afternoon it does seem like spring.  But first thing in the morning especially after nights of rain there is fresh snow on the mountain tops.  Yes you read that right I did type in SNOW.

Flight

Well the flight yesterday was soooooooooooooooo bumpy and rough. The rain was coming straight across the sky not falling straight down. It felt like the pilot was fighting the plane or at least the wind effects on the plane. But he was able to land on the ocean versus the river. So much for nice weather. One does not know what turbulence in a plane is until they have felt it in a small float plane. Especially since on a rough flight you feel more like a rag doll then a person sometimes.

Mind you on a nice day the scenery is beautiful and I would recommend the flight to people but if its bumpy its bumpy.

Lion

Well with the second to last day of march upon us now it is snowing. How wonderful.......

We will see

Okay March came in like a lamb I expect it to go out like a lion. But with all the snow we had last week at the beginning of spring I hope that is the end of the snow for this season. It is raining like crazy today so I don't mind too much but hopefully it won't cause flooding.

This Spring?

So this is what spring looks like hey? The calender says second day of spring but I think the weather forgot to check it out.

?Spring?

The calendar says that today is the first day of spring. But it is not very springy out. In fact it is very wintery out with the wet snow falling.....
