    Daffodils along the driveway are up pretty this year. Pear tree buds are about to burst open. Bee will be glad.

    Nice. You have a nice place.

    We've had some pretty nice days and cold nights here. However we're expecting a week of heavy rains and possibly snow on Monday.
    Our Winter had very little snow and was relatively dry if cold. I figure we'll get a serious Winter blast or two before Spring actually sets in.

    Spring has long since sprung here. M Azalias, Roses and Spyreas are blossoming nicely. Not quite ready to mow grass yet.

    Still have snow cover here, and the forecast is for a tad more. I hope to see crocuses soon. They often come up in the snow.

    We're full swing into spring, highs around 80...with broccoli florets and tomato blossoms in the garden. Already cut the grass twice.

    I agree Sloth...DST crap needs to end...

    I mowed the yard today... the grass was starting to get unruly.
    Lots of buds on the trees and bushes.
    Still having frost till mid April, so garden will go in around the beginning of May or so.

    I mowed my property (free mower of course) yesterday. Almost ready for Lawn Darts and Wiffle Ball, just like we used to play there in the 70’s. All I needed was a Squirt, yum. :D

    madmax Far right. Bipolar. Veteran. Don't push me.

    Spring sprang a couple of weeks ago in central FL. I just came back from a 5 day camp in the Ocala National Forest. I had to shoo a honey bee or two out of my tent everyday (Left the door unzipped like a noob. eye roll.) Coyote mating season here. They were very vocal. Trees are turning green. Pretty soon I'll have to mow the dang yard.

    My apricot and peach trees are in full bloom. Not good. Good chance we will lose them. The late freezes here will bite a gardener in the butt. Good thing about high desert, we have no yards to mow

    I looked out at 2:30 am and saw snow too CS. It wasn’t a dream and I don’t do drugs, yet. PNW weather is nuts sometimes. :D

    I played a show in Jacksonville this past weekend, 82 degrees, traffic bumper to bumper (Bike Week in Datoyna and EPC in Jax), glad to get back to Fairhope where it is 72 this morning and all the early buds are about.
