JuneOntario said:To dispel any misconception that it's balmy here, there's still at least a foot of snow on the ground. However, there are now pools of water in all the low spots (not draining away because the ground is frozen). The only visible parts of my flowerbeds are where the deer have dug down through the snow to find something edible. There may be bulbs coming up under the snow, but only chipmunks and meadow voles have seen them yet. Another sign of spring: my driveway has turned into a sheet of ice. Now then, Sandy, do you still want to move to Canada? Sticking tongue out


June, it sounds just like home !! Hilarious!

We've had a very fast change for the better with the weather... all of February seemed to be below 0F, now suddenly we're up above freezing and then some every day, plus sunny !! Lots of water standing around here too, hope the frost goes out of the ground quickly so the water can soak in. March is always a bad month for me -- it teases us with spring and then we get hit with a big snowstorm or really cold temps again for a while... but at least at this point it can't last a whole lot longer Thumbs up
