i’d planned to head up north to visit family this week
but I took a look at the weather
decided I’ll wait a week or so
some parts of the north were hit with a 100 year storm
especially in the upper peninsula
where the yoopers are a hardy lot.

In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, unseasonable weather is the result of a conflict between Titania and Oberon, queen and king of the fairies.
The seasons alter: hoary-headed frosts
Fall in the fresh lap of the crimson rose,
And on old Hiems’ thin and icy crown
An odorous chaplet of sweet summer buds
Is, as in mockery, set. The spring, the summer,
The childing autumn, angry winter, change
Their wonted liveries, and the mazèd world
By their increase now knows not which is which.
– William Shakespeare – A Midsummer Night’s Dream

“When the snow piles higher than a llama’s patience, it’s time for emergency pyjamas — meanwhile, down here we’re still trying not to melt.”
