Quest 309
Oh, dear, that's right, it is about that time again, isn't it? Of course, it's summer again, and it wouldn't be summertime in the City if we didn't have a blizzard sooner or later--just the same as how we always have those few days of hot weather right around Christmastime, too. Goodness, isn't it a good thing we're having it today, though, and not the other day when everyone was having their water fights? That certainly wouldn't be pleasant, running around throwing water all over each other when it's getting near freezing out.
Still, I've never seen one of these summer blizzards last for more than a few days, so if anyone is worrying about unpacking all their winter things for the long run, I'd say it's best to wait a bit and see if it clears up. It usually does, once we've had our chance to have our midsummer snowball fights and ice skating and all the other lovely things we do.
...Come to think of it, I suppose we ought to add another hot drink or two to the menu at the Blue Light, hadn't we? Perhaps we can come up with one, as a special for the time being.
In the meantime, though, I think I'd better go check on Ellington and the horses before the snow gets too terrible out. I think they've all been around long enough to be accustomed to these sudden snowfalls, too, but if there is a blizzard brewing, it's going to make getting around rather inconvenient and it's always better to be safe than sorry.
Goodness, how did it get to be the end of July already? Why, just next week it'll be...
Well. With any luck, the snow and ice will have cleared up before then. It'd really be a shame if I couldn't spend my City anniversary in--er, by the fountain, the way I always do.
