I wish I could tell you that the small snow event we had Sunday was Winter's last gasp. But alas … the weather forecasters are all aflutter, while trying to firm up whether Opening Day will remain as scheduled for this Thursday. That’s because we might have “snain” i.e. a little snow, a little rain, showing up Thursday morning. Isn’t that special?
Here in Southeast Michigan, Mother Nature is not paying attention to the calendar as the seasons often collide. Yesterday, as I walked home from the Park, the snow was still evident, as were the many icicles, either bulbous monstrosities, or delicate icy fingers with pretty prisms shooting through them from the bright sun. Even though it was still frosty out, the sun was melting those icicles that lined up like soldiers along homeowners’ gutters. Occasionally one would come crashing to the ground, shattering like glass when it reached the cement.
I decided to capture a few images of the dregs of Winter while walking through the neighborhoods on my way home. I hope to give you a smile while you view these paradoxical images. While I might have simply called this post “Snow and Spring-y Things” I’ll just file it under “Tuesday Musings” for now.

P.S. - By the way, the sun looked good in the bright blue sky, but it wasn’t effective as to keeping me warm, but it did melt all the snow … yup, I peered out the door and poof, it was gone by day’s end.
