April Fools

Today marked the end of a beautiful weekend. The past two days have had stellar visibility, low winds, and mild temperatures. I could not have asked for a better end to the month of March. If it was any indication of what this spring might hold, I am in. But surprise! One day later and the mountain has presented an entirely different scene. Fog, snow, and increasing winds have sent the summit back into a winter state today. Hopefully this is Mother Nature’s form of an April Fools day joke. Regardless, here is to the quick arrival of Spring in the weeks ahead.
