Sunday: It is 37 degrees, warming up. The streets in town are slushy - a first this spring. There is still 10 inches of snow on the frozen Yukon, soft snow. It is super slush as the day progresses!
Saturday: Weird: I just walked to the post office and it is snowing steadily. In two months I will be in 110 degree heat. I walked across the yukon river ice and checked out the water puddle. It is now about 100 yards long. It has about 2 inches of slush on top.
There are about 2 inches of new snow and it is still snowing. 11:40 AM. (This is an old picture - the boat you see is totally covered now, you can only see the engine)

Hey Rich, Scott was over yesterday and said that you can't come home from Alaska, he's enjoying your stories and pictures on your blog to much, he say's it's kind of like your in a different country. I said that there are some family members that especially want their grandpa home to play catch with and to run around the house with...and possibly the blog will continue from Oregon and California ...have a grea day....
It is like a different country. Right now, it is 37 degrees and the snow is melting. It beginning to look like a regular place with dirt, water and mild weather. I really liked the extreme of the cold. It was also interesting to have the barren, almost desert like country covered with snow and ice. This place looks kind of like the high desert when the snow is gone.
I am looking forward to getting back to goof off in the northwest now that the cold is done.
