Yes, there are flowers under there somewhere :-\

This white stuff is getting old, but it sure looks pretty

We got several inches here in DC too. The day off work was nice, but I'm ready for the Spring thaw. All the best.

For the one time in my life. I wish I had a cell phone on the way to work. I Have been taking the same country road for 30 years and with all the trees hanging over, it looked like something out of a movie.

nothing uncommon about a little late-March snow, but two days non-stop is ridiculous

This was a few days ago in the mountains of sunny California.

We are grateful for every drop of moisture this year...

Might get a little more tomorrow.

Best,

Fred

We had another dose, last night....not much, maybe enough to "track a rabbit"....but, ANY is "too much" , this time of year ! Spring just doesn't want to come to Northern Illinois....I have managed to get the gardens all fertilized, weed control down, etc. ,and the fruit trees are all sprayed.....but I'm pretty sure I should have just stayed on Dauphin Island for another month !!

It sure does look pretty. Especially since I've never been in any snow.

Looks like my peach tree won't be giving any fruit this year, The tree is in full leaf growth already.  It never grew new shoots at all just went straight into growing leaves and then five flowers and they died right off.  Bees aren't even around yet. Crazy screwy weather. I'm gonna have a talk with ma nature and see what's up with that.

Gary, it looks like the bluebird of happiness is flying over your Butt boat.  :D
Get the tanks ready for the summer and the time to wet a line will be here before you know it.
