fall

I bought new tires for the Chrysler Town & Country.  They’re not all season tires like before, like what we’ve all gotten used to.  If you look closely at your all season tires, you’ll notice they’re not rated for snow.  I now have all weather.  They have the little picture of a snowflake on the tire, designating them suitable as a snow tire.  I got them at Mo-Tires here in Lethbridge.

snow melt flooding

There’s a lot of water around these days.  This winter has had the heaviest snowfall that I can remember.  Now it’s all turning into runoff.

warmer weather

Wow.  I think winter has finally kicked the bucket.  We’ve had four major dumps of snow this winter with more snow than I’ve seen in recent years.  Spring officially happened a few days ago.  Today walking home was really nice.  I’ve been really looking forward to warm weather, and now I think it’s come.
