Ah, April, that wonderful month where winter’s snow melts into spring’s clear water; where showers of varying intensity bring next month’s flowers to bloom; where…hail…covers the ground in Oregon.

Yeah, that’s hail. It hailed several times in April this year. Proof of impending disastrous climate change or just a regular month in Oregon? You make the call!
While this month certainly had…interesting weather, it also saw a surprising return to normalcy; court has (mostly) done away with video appearances, and everything is back to being in person. While it honestly feels like this is a step backwards in some regards (appearing by video was extremely convenient and fulfilled its purpose), I must admit; being in court all the time does have a certain charm to it. With any luck, this will reflect the pandemic finally winding down and life reaching the same level of opportunity as pre-March 2020.
April’s showers bring May flowers, they say. Hopefully, April’s hail will bring May freedom, fun, and awesome f***ing flowers. :)
