'Course lph and Duck on Wheels in Norway beat us all here. Wonder what spring is like right now.

During the Olympics I was chatting up with a staff member manning one of the Canadian arctic territorial govn't pavilions. She was from the Yukon territory. She rhapsodized about the ever-changing carpet of colours for the tundra up there.

I know you aren't THAT far north. Seems like every other person who lived in Edmonton at some point in their life, also lived for a spell in the Canadian Arctic.

My dearie was there on business awhile ago. He saw the northern lights not far from Edmonton.
I've never been to Alaska, it would be fascinating to see how the seasons manifest up there!

I keep hearing that we are in a prairie ecosystem, which I've never experienced before, and being so far north we do seem to be a few weeks behind everyone else. And of course, in the city, most of the neighborhoods have been landscaped in a way that pretty much denies the native vegetation. It sure will be exciting when I finally see something flowering of any variety!
