That's right, people. This is the last week of winter. It's all over saturday. laugh.gif

Why just party on Wednesday, this whole week is worthy of celebration.

I'm not breakin' out my dancin' shoes just yet OR. I've seen snow and sub-freezing temps in April here in Michigan. Our highs this week won't hit 40 F. disgust.gif

Normal is a relative term. For some reason it is not a term my relatives use to describe me.

I know what you mean. Had my 'druthers, I'd be back in Colorado Springs where the winters are at least bearable.

Ah, I miss sunrise on the Rockies.

Well, the moon doesn't lie. It may get cold again, (hey, it was just snowing about 15min ago here), and it will probably snow in May, but by gum, spring's a comin'. And it's comin' Saturday.

Here's the forecast for here in Rochester, NY, tomorrow:
QUOTE
Tomorrow:
**Winter Storm Warning for the Afternoon**
Overcast with steady snow showers developing and becoming locally heavy and steady at times.  Windy with blowing and drifting snow.  Accumulations of 3-6" inches.

I don't think winter's quite done with us yet.
Actually, getting up to 40 would be enough for us to break out the shorts and t-shirts. Here's the wx through Friday.

OldRaven, God bless you for being such an optimist!! And living way up North there, too!

I know Spring is coming, but she seems to be taking her time here. We're due for another Winter storm, beginning tonight and lasting into Wednesday. Snow accumulations forcast (currently wink.gif ) are calling for 6-10". We'll still be partying -- Wednesday's our youngest's birthday, and she always says she's the "Princess of Spring and Warm Weather ". She's telling us not to worry, she'll have the warm temps here by the weekend. laugh.gif (Do you know, she's been uncanny every year--sudden Warmth has arrived on her birthday since her very first Day here on Earth. I don't doubt her word anymore!)

Keep on Dancing, and watch for the Robins' return any day now!! Plant those Sweet Peas Wednesday, if you live South of MA. The ground's not quite loose enough yet here. Soon, soon....

Dreamer1
P.S. I think we need a Dancing Snoopy icon, and some flower icons, too. What say ye?

Even though they are calling for several inches of snow here tonight and tomorrow, I already know that Spring is here. I have seen Redwing Black Birds, saw a Turkey Vulture today and have heard the Spring Peepers crooking down by the creek. thumbs_up.gif

Peepers, check! Daffies, bless their little yellow hearts, check! Forsythia, check! Lots of mud, check! Yep, it's almost time!

I even had one Crocus Bloom this year, and I though I dug them all up, guess not. I was going to transplant them but never got around to doing it. sad.gif

If you've still got the bulbs, stick them in the ground anyway when you can work the dirt. They might live in spite of you! They are tough. Probably no blooms this year, but should be OK by next.

Four inches of snow on the ground overnight and more on the way today.
Spring is coming?????
Winter is having his last hurrah. But no man ever kept a woman down for long. rolleyes.gif
Spring, she will come! biggrin.gif

I saw our first crocus Sunday. This tiny little purple and gold bloom was here for who knows how long before we bought this house and it still comes up faithfully every year. Even though it gets trampled by the kids and the dogs. laugh.gif Think there is a metaphor there. cool.gif
