Sort of.

As the snow melts, the backyard is revealed. These pictures were taken on the first full day of spring.
Daffodils (these are over 30 years old) come up.
It snowed a little bit this morning, and the forecast is for more snow showers through the day. Soon, it should be above freezing.
At least we aren't getting what they got yesterday in Iowa.
Still, winter is slow releasing its grip. But, release it will, and I'll be there to record it.
See? I told you spring was coming!
ReplyDeleteWe got a foot of snow Wednesday. Most of it is already melting
ReplyDeleteThat's what early spring looked like in Chicago, too...
ReplyDeleteIt's getting there...
ReplyDeleteI love that you have daffodils that are over 30 years old. That is wonderful!! My wife for a while worked for some rich oil widows here in Tulsa. My wife is very thrifty and was shocked to find out that the oil widows insisted that the daffodil and tulip bulbs be pulled out every year and replaced with new in the Fall in order to keep the "prettiness" of the beds intact. Heather pulled those bulbs out and brought them home instead of throwing them away and we are still enjoying them.
ReplyDeleteYour part of the country has been hit hard this year. How wonderful your plants are coming up, again. Thirty years old? Woah! I'd say you're a great gardener! xoxox, Brenda
ReplyDeleteSpring makes everything pretty and I am sure we will see some gorgeous clicks from you soon. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy days are here again..thumbs up! A long long wait can be so fresh and encouraging.
ReplyDeleteI amazed to see the tenacity with which the nature bounces back to life... a lot to learn here!
