Spring Snow Storm
A few days ago, we had one of our occasional spring snowstorms, which dumps a lot of wet snow, while staying close to 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Colorado Springs and El Paso County shut down for two days so that public works could clear the roads.
I was house sitting in southwest Colorado Springs where we got a LOT of snow. This is probably more snow than I have seen on my Forrester in years.
The trees looked like this:
Lightning
National Park Service
Evolution of New York City
Elder Scam

Travel Writers has an article about floating saunas.
I did some research about the saunas after reading the following Guardian article:
Continental Drift
This animation from the Open Culture site shows the development of modern continents starting with the Pangea super-continent.
