All around this little place here, spring is evident. Not just the early spring, but the full-blown green grass and blooming flowers and trees getting leaves part of spring. We've had four days in the 80s this week, so about 40 degrees higher than normal for this time of year.
I'm not complaining, it's been nice to wear shorts and run around barefoot. Probably a first for me to do so in March in Michigan. DH is even talking about taking the canoes out this weekend and going for a paddle. Not sure I'm that brave, as I bet the water is still c-o-l-d!!
The forsythias and daffodils are in full bloom this week. My hyacinth are all up and flowering, and the one tree in the fenceline that blooms white in early spring (someday I'm going to actually figure out what kind of tree it is) burst into bloom on Tuesday.

Supposedly we are having a 'cold' front move through this evening. A big thunderstorm touched off around 5:00 p.m., with several more rounds of storms moving on through tonight and into tomorrow. Currently we are between storms and the lighting is beautiful outside--bright colors against a black sky to the north and east.
Tomorrow's temperatures are supposed to 'only' be in the 60s. Only 15-20 degrees hotter than normal.
Love the pictures. Nothing like some dark clouds and a little sunshine to make all of the colors of the landscape jump right up and shout.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for some warmer temps here. Had snow here this morning.
