Easter Weekend In Michigan

We have had some great weather already this spring. Whenever that happens, we Michiganders fool ourselves into thinking winter's frosty grip has subsided. At the ripe old age of 44, I have learned to guard myself against such wishful thinking. At the moment, we are in the midst of a wicked cold spell complete with snow. This is the view just to my right at this very moment:

It is snowing with a temperature of 27 F. Everyone is riding indoors. The training race scheduled for today has been cancelled.

This state is beautiful but in the spring you just can't count winter out until mid-May.
