Out walking we saw this warning sign next to the former ice rink. I appreciate the knowledge the park workers possess. No point having to put the sign back up if we get a final winter storm!
Robert Frost knew New England best when he wrote in ”Two Tramps In Mud Time:”
The sun was warm but the wind was chill. You know how it is with an April day When the sun is out and the wind is still, You’re one month on in the middle of May. But if you so much as dare to speak, A cloud comes over the sunlit arch, A wind comes off a frozen peak, And you’re two months back in the middle of March.
Perhaps they need another sign. Danger, trip hazard. Old wheel!

Definitely a change in seasonal weather in my part of New Zealand…the nights and mornings a chill. Humid afternoon…Autumn is fast approaching.
Agree with Peter on trip hazard

I hadn’t realized that you deal with humidity. In my imaginary New Zealand it is idyllic all the time!

Depends where you are on the narrow islands. Here in my region, narrow strip of land between to oceans therefore different “weather” colliding.
We are “islands” and on any day you can go to the beach…across.
However we aren’t tropical islands but rather closer to the South Pole. On the other hand a tropical cyclone is coming later today from the North (Pacific Ocean)

Winter has definitely returned to Saskatchewan – and we are missing the worst of it this week. To the south and east of us, they are expecting gale force winds and three FEET of snow. Yikes! Have a great week, Elizabeth!💞
