Snow on Memorial Day? Really?

 Took the boys, Connor and Jed, to a 5k this morning at 7 a.m. The weather did not cooperate. During the race we got rained on, snowed on, and hailed on. We got soaked. I asked them part way through if they wanted to finish, and they both said that they did. So we kept going. Didn't stick around for the pancake breakfast. Came home and had breakfast indoors instead.
