April: still snowy! But also melting!
 |
| 4.1.23 (sunshine and clear sidewalks + wheels and cousins = a mighty fun Saturday in Heber) |
 |
| 4.3.23 (day two of dog sitting Leo. The kids and Gregg walked him twice a day for a week and holy cow! what a good therapy it was for the kids (especially Sam) in getting used to a dog and not being so scared.) |
 |
| 4.3.23 (yes, that is a smile and a pet from Sam!) |
 |
| 4.5.23 (it just keeps coming!) |
 |
| 4.5.23 ("Until the end of time . . . ") |
 |
| 4.5.23 (Ky sent this one and it made me laugh) |
 |
| 4.5.23 (we found her birdhouse on display at the nature center - even though it didn't win any awards, it was super fun to see it in its glory along the path) |
 |
| 4.5.23 (views from our walk with Leo the dog) |
 |
| 4.5.23 (walkin' the dog around the neighborhood) |
 |
| 4.5.23 |
 |
| 4.5.23 |
 |
| 4.5.23 (Sam, too!) |
 |
| 4.5.23 (those are fence posts across the street from the park) |
 |
| 4.5.23 (and there's the park itself) |
 |
| 4.5.23 (park sunset) |
bonus video!
4.6.23
(I was walking through Huntsville and heard cranes! They were in
this house's backyard and the sound gave me hope that spring really is on its
way!)
 |
| 4.7.23 (ski night at Brighton with Mugs!) |
 |
| 4.7.23 |
 |
| 4.7.23 (complete with Banbury Cross donuts in the parking lot when we were done. What a fun night!) |
 |
| 4.7.23 (Until next time, Brighton - you were marvelous!) |
 |
| 4.8.23 (Harrisville disc golf is playable, but muck boots were useful in the soggy, muddy areas) |
 |
| 4.8.23 (we played a couple rounds on our way to Cache Valley for an Easter egg hunt and it was glorious) |
 |
| 4.9.23 (the snowy/icy path around our garage to the back deck is finally melting a patch down to the dirt!) |
 |
| 4.9.23 (Happy Easter to you!) |
 |
| 4.9.23 (a solo Sunday walk around the loop while the kids play Minecraft before we head to Providence for Easter dinner) |
 |
| 4.9.23 (loop walk) |
 |
| 4.10.23 (we thought we'd take a walk down to the reservoir to see how things are looking. the snow was SO hard to walk on - crusty on top but thin and we postholed to our hips many, many times on the way down to the old highway) |
 |
| 4.10.23 (old highway) |
 |
| 4.10.23 (buried bench at the park) |
 |
| 4.12.23 (meltage on the roof and the driveway - it's getting wider!) |
 |
| 4.13.23 (bare patches in the backyard!) |
 |
| 4.13.23 (Cal built a debris hut with some of the branches that had come down from the ponderosa this winter) |
 |
| 4.13.23 (she did an awesome job and had such a fun and sappy time doing it) |
 |
| 4.13.23 (a look back at the backyard - how long is that giant pile going to be around?) |
 |
| 4.13.23 (deck pathway getting wider, too) |
 |
| 4.16.23 (the driveway bank is shrinking!) |
 |
| 4.16.23 (back at Harrisville park for another round of disc golf on our way to Providence) |
 |
| 4.19.23 (Cal and Sam discovered this cool ice-covered puddle in our ditch and took these pics) |
 |
| 4.19.23 |
 |
| 4.19.23 (a bike ride around the loop before starting school - it was soggy for a stretch, but soggy means melting!) |
 |
| 4.19.23 (see those melted stripes through the field? basically that's a river of meltage from across the street) |
 |
| 4.19.23 (more flowing field situations - so many flooded basements in the neighborhood this spring!) |
 |
| 4.20.23 (oh wait. we're not done yet.) |
 |
| 4.21.23 (Earth day garbage pick up down our street, to the park, and around the block by the substation) |
 |
| 4.22.23 (a walk/scooter/roller blade excursion on the river trail in Ogden to check out the confluence of the Weber and Ogden Rivers) |
 |
| 4.22.23 (they're running high and brown!) |
 |
| 4.22.23 (this is the confluence - pretty gnarly!) |
 |
| 4.22.23 (hard to see, but it was cool to spot where the currents of the two rivers met and started swirling) |
 |
| 4.23.23 (a walk to check out how the north arm trail is looking. little did we know this would be the last time we'd be on this bridge for a while (yes, that is foreshadowing for next month's flooding pics that I can make since I'm posting this a month late) |
 |
| 4.23.23 (This slow little stream is as full as we've ever seen it.) |
 |
| 4.24.23 (another morning bike ride, this time to the old highway - I like to keep an eye on how things are melting and filling) |
 |
| 4.24.23 (solo walk around the neighborhood - I had just a few minutes left on my pod so I went down our street all the way to the end and the fields down there are lakes!) |
 |
| 4.24.23 (so much water that they can reflect the sky!) |
 |
| 4.24.23 |
 |
| 4.25.23 (current status on the snow situation in our yard/deck) |
 |
| 4.25.23 (definite progress being made here!) |
 |
| 4.26.23 (from the top of the loop - this is the same view we had up there on the 19th; a big difference in a week!) |
 |
| 4.26.23 (and this was that icy/floody road we rode on just last week!) |
 |
| 4.26.23 (solo walk to the nature trail in Huntsville) |
| bonus video! "frog noise" 4.26.23 (on the Huntsville nature trail)  |
| 4.26.23 (lots of flooding here, too) |
 |
| 4.26.23 (this used to be a campground. I think they ended up closing it a few years ago because it had the tendency to flood. go figure.) |
 |
| 4.26.23 (views from the nature trail in Huntsville) |
 |
| 4.26.23 (needs a few more days of drying out at the horse corral at the park before it will be usable) |
 |
| 4.27.23 (back at the old highway overlook) |
 |
| 4.29.23 (first backyard fire of the season!) |
 |
| 4.29.23 (we're so close to spring!) |
