Welp, we're in the middle of the worst April blizzard to hit Edmonton in 20 years (I like how it's described as "worst" rather than "only.) This is what the world looked like on Friday, when I went out to take photos of rabbits courting out by Ag For:



As you can see, plenty of rabbits and no snow in sight:



On Saturday it started snowing:



And then it snowed some more:



On Sunday I measured the snow on the patio table and it was almost 6 inches deep. On Monday morning we dug the front steps out because it was also windy and the snow had drifted onto our stairs and against the house. It took us an hour to get to work because we stood at the bus stop for 20 minutes, I got tired of waiting and went back home to pick up a warmer coat. When we stepped out the door a couple minutes later, the bus passed us. We did eventually catch a bus, though.

On our way home, we saw a snow-covered rabbit in a divet under a lamp post. Brown rabbits covered in snow look awfully pathetic.

These pictures were taken this morning. It's *still* snowing. But we're staying home.

As you can see, the snow on the patio table is probably about a foot deep:



We've got some interesting drifts forming on the roofs in the neighbourhood. Here's the one on our garage:



We've got an even better one out front, but I'm not going out there until it's time to shovel again.
