Spring blooms

Look who I found :0)

Spring really IS here! Not only has most of the snow melted, the temperatures warmed above 60 (unusual for us this time of year) but the Robins have come back. :0)

Check back tomorrow to see who has been waking me up. . .

Strength can get you through the toughest winter.  Be strong!

Make sure you don't miss the signs, don't ignore them thinking they will go away, get to a doctor and get checked out.

Who said the going would be easy?  Just keep trudging on. ;0)

Any idea what kind of bird this is? He's bigger than the finches and juncos, maybe twice their size.

Awakening

I love watching the leaves emerge in the spring. But I was really amazed that my big rose bushes did not survive the winter, yet this little one, the kind you usually keep in the house, woke back up. Very odd.

In a fog

It looks rather lonely and bleak, I don't think anyone is home.

It's unusual for us to have fog that lasts all day. But we spent at least 4 days in a fog, every minute of every day, and I assume night, was spent being able to see only a short distance.

The good news is that when the fog lifted we had sunshine and less snow. :0)

Spring is coming

I live in a small town, in the long-winter-cold, where the ice cream shops close for the winter and return in the spring. This was the scene at our local ice cream shop the night before they opened.

And I went by the next morning too. Belt's will have lines like this all summer long, and I've never tried them, lol.

Do you have signs of spring around you?
