April 21, 2020…when did winter end?

I am basically a weather-tolerant person. Well, except for the hot muggy stuff.

But 24 degrees and winds at Drake Passage speeds on April 21st is a bit much.

Here’s the place where the land meets Hillman’s Long Lake.

It’s even a bit colder this morning. Yesterday’s snow dusting is on the grass. The lake edge still gleams in the bright morning sun.
