Do we laugh now, or later? Didn't you guys get a bunch the other day as well? And then there's me, sleeping in the car with just a sleeping bag on the weekend!

I'm not crazy...oh, wait, nevermind.

When I lived in Edmonton, we once had about 45 cm of snow on the Victoria Day weekend. It can also snow in Calgary in August. However, all this makes sense when we remember that Calgary (the airport) is at 3500 feet above sea level.
