See the daffs in the lower left corner?
On Monday, the first day of spring break, it snowed for about two hours. Nothing stuck, but watching the flakes spin around the yellow daffodils was beautiful.
There’s a tree in the yard next door that flowers early every spring. In the six years I’ve lived here, the tree has been spanked by a freeze every year but one. It sprouts these gorgeous pink, tulip-shaped flowers. But within days, it will freeze, and all the flowers will turn brown. This is a tree that needs global warming.
Top is the tree in April 2003, when we didn’t have a late March or April freeze. Below is the tree yesterday, after three days of freezing weather.

This is the first year in some time my tulips and daffodils have not frozen. Of course, really, really hot weather will be upon us in the flatlands before I know it!
You know, I really get let down when the freeze comes in a zaps everything brown. I hate it when that happens
I like these pics.
Thanks, all! My digital photos are only organized by date so it took me forever to go back and find the shot of the tree in full bloom!
