The spring rain has arrived ...

 

 

 

This is me on my way to work in spring - ski jacket, cap and gumboots!

May and June are typically rainy months here in Calgary (unfortunately, last year, someone forgot to tell the weather gods that July and August are not meant to be rainy as well!).  We've been spoilt the last few weeks with lots of sunshine and warm weather.  However, four days ago, the rain arrived and it has been our constant companion ever since.  The rivers are raging and there is flooding all over the city.  Thank goodness I bought my lovely Hunter gumboots to splash about in!  C and I were hoping to do our first hike of the season this weekend, but in this weather?  I think not.  Instead, it'll be an open fire, a pot of tea and a good book!
