By all appearances...

...this might be considered a dark, dreary blip. Not by me. It represents the miracle that happens every year; that somehow all those piles and piles of snow in the back yard make their exit on top of the frozen ground or out the drain pipe, one shiny drop at a time. There is one small pile left but after the rain today and tomorrow's tropical heat wave, that too will be history.

Residents of Fargo and the Red River Valley always ask: will the Red River flood this year? Err...do bears go potty in the woods? Come on.
