Maine weather

I was asked yesterday what the weather would be like in May....my answer.....unpredictable. Two days ago, 99% of the snow was gone in my yard. Right now, we have a foot of new snow and it is still snowing. This is March?

Recently I received a catalog from Down East books. In it is a book about why Maine weather is so unpredictable. I think I will order it for our gift shop. Maybe if I read it , I can give an intelligent answer when asked about the weather.

Speaking of the gift shop, I just signed up for the New England gift show which is in Portland in March. So, everyone is gearing up for the new season. There are so many talented artisans in Maine, the show is always fun.

Well, we open in 35 days! Let's hope the snow melts once again!
