Chinook

When the warm wind blows in Emmett's town, the sky turns to this...

and ushers in cycling season by turning Emmett's halfpipe from this...

...to this.

Emmett takes his mom for a walk

The chinook winds blew in some beautiful weather, and so Emmett dragged his mom out for a walk in the sun. Unfortunately, warm temperatures, while they give a reprieve from winter, also result in extremely slushy side streets and sidewalks. Emmett's mom introduced him to the term 'soaker' when her left foot landed square in a curbside puddle as she crossed the street.
