A few things for news!

Last week several feet of snow fell out of the sky and landed in COnrad MT. For the first time in 7 years we canceled school on account of snow! It was packed up everywhere. I had a 33" dirift beside my car, a 24"drift behind my car and a total of 2' acculumation everywhere! It was crazy. It was the kind of wet and heavy snow that can only come in the late spring. Stores were closed and I stayed at home and made homemade chai bread. It was delightful.

As people talk about spring coming and seeing new life and being reminded of the return from the depths of winter, i feel as though we are still very submursed in that dead of winter. It remains in the upper 50s and windy, but yesterday was a sight to be seen.

Becuase of all the snow that we had a couple weeks ago, we have recived an intense amount of moisture for this particular part of the country. In fact, the fields are too wet to seed! -Funny that i know that, i realize. But everything is green! I do not rememebr so much greenness last year and it makes me sooo excited to have everything green, including my costantly growing grass!:)

In other news, i am moving June 3rd to Iowa, and storing stuff at my mums house, then moving on to Iowa city in July. But i am very very excited to go to this new school, although i am sad to leave behind my students, friends, and most importantly belly dance class!:) In the month of June, along with moving, I will be going to Ireland for a week and the Netherlands for a week as well. I am very very excited about all of this traveling and vacationing. It will be a fun summer, althoug a busy one at that!:)

cheers!
