Yesterday, I had to chip my car out of a solid block of ice. It was like I was sculpting the damned thing.

My mom send me pictures of some guys playing hockey - skates and all - on the iced over road in front of her house in Ottawa.

Snow on the ground this morning.

At this rate, my temporary winter car port will be on my driveway for over 6 months if I don't take it down by May 4th.

What you are seeing there, on the left, fireplace.  On the right, a small tree. 
That's April 17th.

You can see my spring flowers right there, dead center.  Well, you can't seem them, because there's 3 feet of snow above them, but they are there.

Today was hotter than any day last year: 26 degrees, which also says something about the shitty summer we had.

Hottest April day here in nearly 70 years! :gasp:

UK temperatures top 29C in hottest April day since 1949.
