April and still 3 degrees but it warms up and melts in the afternoons!  It is Spring but not that you would know it here yet.  We are pretty much use to it though.  On days when it gets in the 40's it is hot to us - we want to break out the sandals and shorts!
Large overhang - hope I'm not the one under this when it falls off!!
Susan flying from Anchorage to Bethel right by Mt. Redoubt on the way home to Emmonak. She had a meeting in Fairbanks so had to fly on three different planes to get there.  Smelled sulpher on the way into Anchorage and the pilot said "I got a little concerned there".  That was kinda scary.
Sharkey has gotten use to the snow and cold unless it is blizzard conditions - then he says "get my coat please" and he does not take long outside to get his business done and run back inside.
This was Sunday, April 5th - Mt. Redoubt had a huge explosion on Saturday am - made us think Susan would not get back from Fairbanks.  It could keep erupting for months.
