Spring Melt 2013
When I went out for my ride yesterday, I was met with several places where the path was underwater. Spring melt had started…for the second time. There was a quick one in April and then we got a ton of snow in the mountains at the end of April and most of May. Since the snow pack and spring melt give us our summer water supply this was a welcome.
I shouldn’t have been surprised when I got to the waterfall, but its power was startling. I filmed a bit of it, and apologize ahead of time for the quality, it’s with my Canon camera and not my camcorder.
A Little Dinner Music: The Man Who Cannot Be Moved, The Script
I know I didn’t get a recipe up this week. I’ll make up for it, I’ve got a week of ice cream, gelato and sorbet recipes ready to go, leading up to the Friday Recipe Exchange. I have some nice photos and videos from my rides and hikes this week, that I might get uploaded, too.
Until then, a little night music:
NASA Showcases the Sun

I loved this video so I had to share. Meanwhile in the kitchen I’m working on Friday’s recipe exchange.
Watch it in HD if you can. I love the music. There is something comforting about the whole thing. No matter what, the sun keeps turning. The original link to all the information is here.
Friday Night Dinner Music: Keith Whitley, When You Say Nothing At All
One of my favorite songs when it came out. Still love it.
