To anyone in the country past the coast – white on the ground is fairly normal in the winter. But we are at sea level. In NW Oregon. And its APRIL!!!
Jon went out to make a Hail Man, then got out the ladder to clean out the gutters. I went out to help take photos.
He worked his way half way down the house before his fingers got wet – and then cold.
It was sunny to the East,
But it was Stormy to the West – so had to get cleaned up before the next downpour!
Does his count for Mammal Tracks in our Nature Study?
Too Late – We got hit by that black cloud to the west.
Dry for the rest of the day – Good thing I’ve gotta gutter cleaning lovin’ boy!

Its spooky funny how similar we are – as when the rain started feeling like little darts on my head I ran under the eave there to protect myself, and then just laughed – thinking – What, its not like it will pick up into golf or softball sized hail or anything. I guess our reaction got trained in Tornado Ally eh?
We were out in a similar hail storm that day around noon in Salem. I haven't written the blog post yet but we ran and got back to the van just before the worst of it! WOW! At least we aren't in Okla still where we have to worry about golf ball size or bigger! As we were sitting in the van getting pelted, I told the boys about Okla weather. =)
