    This morning I, as usual, perused the forums and wound up at "Good Morning" and thought over what I might enter there this morning. After all the talk about how vegy gardens and flower gardens are doing, I didn't think many would believe me when I say that the snow is still here and melting slowly. So, I went to the windows with the camera and snapped these photos to prove what we have left here.

    Tom you must be getting slightly tired of looking out at all that snow. I hope the melt continues and that you'll soon be seeing green instead of white out of your windows.

    Hmmmmm, I sure thought I had posted a comment here but it didn't make it.....so to repeat myself.

    Beautiful photos, Tom.

    As much as I like snow I definitely would not like to see it at this time of year. You have patience Tom!

    My patience is beginning to run out, and I'll gladly share some of the 85 - 95 degree temps, with Toni.

    As lovely as it looks, and yes, my kids would just adore that view, I am so glad we don't have it. We had an overcast, damp day today, but everything is growing like made and liking this damp, warm spell we are having.

    Oh my goodness... for a gardener in April, that can't be fun to observe in a morning... Hoping you get warmer temps soon...

    I know how you feel Tom. We had no snow left and I had a nice taste of garden cleanup before Mother Nature nailed us with another 25 cm this week. It's hard to be patient when winter has been soooo long. I hope you get some mild temperatures and sunny skies this weekend to help melt some of that snow.

    I would have believed you without the photo evidence. We've got lots of snow a bit higher up and further inland. There's been lots of it this year.
