When Will This Snow Melt???

We have had snow covering the back patio for over 2 months now and I am sick and tired of it! The weather seems to be warming up, but because there is so much snow there, it just seems like it will take another 2-3 weeks before it finally melts away. The worst part--the weather is actually nice enough that if the snow weren't there, the kids could actually ride bikes outside. The high yesterday was 50 degrees. So, Kevin took the matter into his own hands and decided to snow blow the entire patio/cement area out back. The end result? A place to ride bikes, scooters, and run around! We were all very excited to see the bare pavement! Kevin and I even sat outside for about an hour today and didn't feel cold at all. We are definitely becoming more climatized! We moved here 11 months ago and froze until summer came. I'm hoping I enjoy spring much more this time around.

I can definitely see why this is such a great thing. I remember last year and how tired of the snow I was at this point of the winter.

I am with you Amy on wishing the snow away. I asked Keith if he couldn't blow our snow away like Kevin did for you! I'ld be happy with an acrea or two, that's all. :-)
