March Weather Madness

What a wild month of weather we've had so far here in the Northeast.  The first weekend of March we had a terrible nor'easter with hurricane force winds and thankfully mostly rain. I was a nervous wreck at home all day thinking one of the giant trees around our house would fall on us.  Julia was home from school that day so that helped calm my nerves a bit.

Then a week later we had another nor'easter with enough snow to call off school.

And another nor'easter hit yesterday with lots of snow to call off school for two days.  Yikes...the kids now have 5 snow days to make up which brings them to the last week of June.  It's only a matter of time that our town will join the many other towns implementing the new policy of not making up snow days.  There is no reason why the kids can't do assigned work at home.  It would teach them time management and responsibility.

Pictures from this morning. The sky is so blue...

Such a beautiful morning.
