Arrival of Spring in Petersburg

Flora is starting to bloom in the muskeg, announcing the arrival of spring. Our lawn is starting to pop up skunk cabbages -- a not-so-welcome sign of spring.

This weekend will be the 50th Little Norway festival. The city seems quite a bit more busy than when we left for our vacation three weeks ago. There are definitely more visitors in town, and the early summer cannery workers are also arriving.

Our whole family caught some sort of a cold. That's not too surprising, I suppose, because we had just recently flown back.
