Signs of Spring - already ?!?


                                        
I noticed several plants poking up through the ground the first of the month. I went to take a closer look and discovered they are really sprouting up, in fact it looks like some are going to bloom before long ! This winter has been unusually mild here with barely a dusting of snow so far. Bitterly cold days have been few and far between. Global warming? 

The Groundhog did predict 6 more weeks of winter weather, so maybe we will see a real snow day yet.

  1. Things look like that here as well! We did get a good dusting of snow last night though to put things in perspective!

  2. Wow! Our daffodils have sprouted already, but everything else is still pretty brown! It's a good thing because we went from temps in the high 50's earlier this week to 25 today! I picked the single daffodil bloom on Thursday afternoon to bring in the house. Glad I did! I think it would be frozen otherwise!
