Say Bye-Bye to Winter...
Photo quote de jour 
Last Friday, much of New York state was snowed in under a billowy duvet of the white stuff. Last night, I was in the city and couldn't find a snowball's worth. Nature is the ultimate quick change artist. That said, we have plenty of snow remaining in the 'burbs, but I can smell spring and I say, bring it on. I'm ready to welcome the first unfurlings of tulips, of tender shoots and brave new buds. But before we do, here's a final blast of winter. It's official. I won't be posting anymore snow pics this winter. It's time to make new tracks. Say bye bye...

Wow, awesome collage and are those bird prints in the snow?

I have a feral cat who lives on the porch and birds share his food (not at the same time). In this photo there are prints from my boots, the cats' and several species of birds.

Stunning collage and ice storm photos. I am soooo ready to say goodbye to winter. Not that I do not LOOOVE winter, but I prefer to DRIVE to winter, not drive IN winter.
Are those rac tracks in the snow?
Next fall, I should plant tulips. Maybe bring them indoors in November for a winter blooming. Kept them in the fridge for a month, that worked fine.

The photos are gorgeous, but I'm with you - enough is enough with this winter. I practically wept with joy when I saw the first crocus appear in a yard in my neighborhood - I'm sooo ready for spring!

Your first crocus! Now, that's bliss. You're way ahead of us.

I absolutely love the wintry collage! Thankfully down south where I live the weather if starting to act...well, southern! We've had snow on the pines since before winter actually started which is crazy! Today I saw a bluebird and a cardinal out gathering their bits of whatnot for their spring nests. Yay!
