March is a crazy month

The saying here in Armenia and Artsakh of March being a crazy month for as long as I’ve lived here has never been disproved.

After some very nice weather yesterday, I wake up this morning to see that Martuni has been blanketed with snow.

I called Yerevan and find out that they got over a half meter of snow yesterday in a matter of a couple of hours.

Well it looks like there will be no apricots this year in my yard. My apricot tree was fooled once again by the warm weather and just yesterday blossomed. Now it’s covered in snow and will drop all it’s peddles when the snow melts.

One thing this snow will be good for is the wheat harvest, which thanks to very few mice and now this snow, should have a high yield.
