It's spring, a time of rebirth.

Or, if you live in Saskatchewan,snow.On the third day of the season, people here woke up to a thick blanket of it, conveniently cloaking a slick layer of cool, hard ice.

Naturally, thesnowfall showed up a few, fatefuldays after many of uscommuters had safely packed away shovels and bootsand removed winter tires in favour of cracked sun roofs.

We knew old man winter would be back. It was all just too good to be true.

Some managed to poke their heads out of the cold stuff to find asilver lining.

Others managed to beat the bewilderment in order to share survival information.

Yet, the vast majority bandedtogether to lament it all.

This is what Regina turned into.

And, let's be honest, deep down in our hearts we knew this was coming.
