More Signs of Spring!


Crocus popping up along the front sidewalk at my house. There's another patch under the maple tree in the boulevard, but I don't think they're up yet (they're buried under a couple inches of leaves, so they've probably got a few more days of warmth before they find the surface).





















And these are the same tulips I saw here a couple of days ago ...

I Take it Back

I just looked outside and there are HUGE snowflakes coming down! Definitely not Spring-like.

UPDATED: The snowflakes have stopped and the sun actually came out this afternoon. But the wind is raging and it's chilly out there. I took a quick walk around the soggy yard for a look at what might have popped out of the ground since yesterday, and saw that some little critter has beheaded a patch of tulips just poking through the ground. Arghh!

It's a good thing I was working so diligently on those quilts yesterday - the May baby boy came a month early and showed up this morning. So I'm off to finish quilting and start the binding. I don't want the little guy to be chilly in this ridiculous spring weather we're having.
