Wordless Wednesday - Spring has sprung ... into Spri-nter
You have a little less snow than we have in north-central Alberta! No sign of tulips, crocus, daffodils or anything of the sort. Like Lois said, it'll be a good soaking for those grasses, perennials and shrubs in your garden. Welcome Spr--inter!
Yikes--first 3 blogs I read today have snow! Amazing that Seattle has had sunny days line up with weekends for 2 weeks now. On the bright side--you can put off those spring chores a little longer!!
Hi John - I'm really pleased to see your comment on my garden post tonight - thanks for stopping by. Always a pleasure to meet another gardener.........I see you share so much of interest here and I will be reading back as I know I'll learn a lot from you!
Our high temps have come to an abrupt end tonight as a storm is coming through and rain is lashing against the windows. Glad I caught the wisteria and dogwood flowers in my lens earlier - they may look sad in the light of day tomorrow!
Happy Spring.....hopefully it will come your way very soon and the snow will just be a memory.
Hey, that looks like my back yard right now. Spring is really slacking off up here in the Northeast.
ReplyDeleteA heavy snow. Perhaps that will be good to soak the earth for Spring flowers. :)
ReplyDeleteSome of those images are lovely, but I'm sure you're so over the white stuff...

ReplyDeleteAch! Stay north of here snow flakes! Hopefully its the last of it?
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh! Looks like my place! Will it ever end?
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness is that now?! I hope it doesn't come here.
ReplyDeleteThis is crazy...I think that they are predicting more........NO!!!!
ReplyDeleteIs this really spring? We have had some chilly weather, with lots of rain, hail and strong winds. I can't wait to get out into the garden again....
ReplyDeleteHail and thunder today, snow for us tomorrow. Mother Nature, I give up!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. I don't believe my Southern heart could stand it.
ReplyDeleteI am so over SNOW!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my! Sending you thoughts of a real spring soon!
ReplyDeleteI sure hope the snow disappears for you soon. Its like spring here.
