What happened?!

Spring was in the air.

Buds were forming on the trees.

Flowers were bursting out of the ground.

I was starting my outdoor projects.

Then this happened...

Dear Lord,

I believe that you have mistaken the UP of Michigan for Alaska.

I forgive your mistakes, just as you forgive mine, but could you please bring back the birds and flowers?

Amen.

The Lord must have heard my prayers, because the roads are almost entirely clear and my hardy flowers can once again be seen.
What funny weather we're having...
