It might not look much like Spring to those of you who live in places that have tulips, daffodils, crocuses already blooming, grass greening, but here, this is progress! Although it was still slightly below freezing, the sun was hitting the front porch this morning, birds were singing and despite the large piles of snow left to melt, it had the feel of Spring – really!
The sun was even making Bob’s eating venue warm and spring-like.
This is near the end of our short loop – looking back from whence we came along the snow covered ridge. There is still 6-10 inches of snow on some of our path. In the morning it is frozen and easy walking. By afternoon and for our evening walk, it is like walking in mashed potatoes.
As we approached our own property, Karl decided on a toe cleaning break – hopefully one of the last for the season. We’re getting there!
Progress is good! We were down into the mid-20s last night with an encore forecasted for this evening. That will wreak havoc on the budding trees, but they’ll recover…
Morning from Down Under Ann. Love the photo from your front porch and the one ‘looking back’. Your sun is rising and mine is getting lower!
Boy I can see a change in your snow accumulations, especially on your short loop and off the front porch.
We have been having some wonderful spring weather the past couple of days, but the bottom falls out Monday night/Tuesday/Tuesday night with temperatures only going between the mid-20’s to mid-30’s. Although a few things will suffer, I just hope it isn’t my blueberries!
There really is ground under that stuff, huh? Karls seems to feel the need to remain cool. The porch looks a lot more inviting now!
See – I told you that you would see ground first. Well, I’ll just enjoy your spring!
Yes… it looks as though your Spring is starting to shape up!
I’ll bet Bob will miss the snow.
