Happy 94th Birthday Finland! Yesterday we woke up to our first bit of snow – about 1cm. It stuck around all day. Today snowed more – on and off most of the day. Don’t know if it will still be around tomorrow though because the temp keeps fluctuating between –2C and +2C . . .

Joel thought we had a crop circle out there in the field . . . It’s been a warm, nice summer! We pulled out some of the bushes at the edge of the road because they were mostly dead.

Today was about –13C most of the day. But, we’ve had crazy weather . . . Saturday was about –2C, Sunday was –17C, then yesterday warmed up to +2C and it was raining. Snow started melting and everything was a big mess. By after school the road was like a skating rink. Then, as it cooled down towards evening, it started to snow which made the roads easier to travel on.

The temperatures have been all over the place this past month . . . from –30C to +2C . . . and the changes are usually pretty radical, not gradual. Weird.
