Crazy Weather

tulips

     Ten days ago we hit one degree.  The beginning of this week we had four days of above freezing temperatures.  One of those days it was 60 degrees.  It is becoming hard to know what to wear. 

     All the ice and snow melted.  As I inspected the yard, I noticed these tulips emerging in the backyard garden.  And a daffodil peeked up from the soil in the front yard garden.

     We had a dusting of snow this morning, and the weather forecast is for very cold days for the next week.

 But I am escaping the cold as my family begins the drive to Florida tomorrow for two weeks.  When I get back, I'll see how much these tulips and daffodils have grown.  Meanwhile, I am looking forward to the warm weather and all the tropical plants I'll see while in Florida.
