From Beauty to the Beast

There are only a couple of times that Mother Nature wears an ugly face here at Salmon Lake.  It is when she is going through a change of seasons. And it is definitely not pretty!

The good news is that the stronger sunshine is melting the snow.





The bad news is that the road is a mess! When the frost comes out, driving becomes an adventure in "mud surfing". There are no tires for that. 

And then there are the potholes and water hazards. And the requisite "tiger tails" to keep you from losing your muffler or sinking up to the top of the wheel wells.



But take heart - it means that spring is definitely on the way and this won't last long.

Here's a prettier scene to remind you that in a matter of weeks, you'll be back up here getting ready for Mother Nature's prettiest season.
