April showers bring, what?

Ugh, tomorrow is Monday which means my office changes back to a desk piled with papers and a computer screen. A far cry from my office this weekend. Yes, the squad was my office and the burn barrel was the water cooler, to put it into speak that all the gopher town employees would understand.







The fire academy started off with a bang and quickly became bogged down in the snow and cold. For once the weather man was correct in his prediction of cold and snow. I have yet to figure out why they get it right when they are forecasting bad weather and one really wants the weather to be decent. There should be a better way at securing the weather forecast; I wonder how China is doing with their experiments of controlling the weather for the Olympics?


The county snow plow operator was supposed to take care of the snow berms/drifts in front of the station doors. What do you think? Mission Accomplished? That is going to be a lot of hand snow removal if that is the best that they can do with the plow. It is sad that the most winter we have gotten has been in April. :)
