Spring in Maine looks a little different than most places….
Because we woke up to this today.
We didn’t have nearly enough snow this winter, but now? Almost a flippin’ foot fell overnight.
Daffodils and tulips?
Not quite yet.
And because all that heavy wet snow knocked out our satellite feed and someone can’t stand to be without the news for 5 minutes?
Yeah.
This.
At 6:30 am.
Looks like fun, no?
Ah…
Spring!
River's world..... 
We went from Winter to summer overnight! Been in the 80s all week and is supposed to hit 90 degrees tomorrow!!! I love it!

We used to get 17″ of snow on St Pattys. We didn’t this year. We are getting it 1/2″ at a time every morning, melted and gone by noon only to wake up to it again the next morning. Yay.

It was such a ridiculously mild, snow free winter this was unexpected.

Buy hubby something for his birthday that he’ll love — no ladder needed. The only problem might be that they’re made of aluminum and don’t rust (but hey, you don’t rust, and he loves you) 😉

I may not be rusty… but I do creak now and then!

Sometimes when we get a lot of rain (like we’re getting now–at this rate I’m pretty sure our new state flower is going to be the cattail) people will say, “Imagine if this were snow!”
It doesn’t look so great. At least you’ve got your TV back, though.

I love snow. In the winter… but not when I’m stuck inside during a pandemic and want nothing more than to get out!

Woah that is real snow! This is what I would call proper quarantine.

That is precisely why I am in Texas and not Colorado. We do get snow about once a decade or so, but we just tip up the thermostat and wait for God to remove it …

Is still beautiful. Long winter is LONG! We’ll get snow again here, but not like that. (Not usually anyway)

It’s snowed in May here, but I was wee. It’s not common. Snow in April the last 7 years

We’ve had springs like that here in Minnesota, but not this year (knock on wood). Looking ahead I saw two days of 60 degrees next week. Woo hoo!!

Us, too. One year we had a snow day in April. That was a welcome surprise for my fellow teachers and I. The best thing about those is that two days later its melted and springlike again!
