Rain & Snow Go Away...

...Come again another day! Yes, we got snow again! Last Friday, it rained and turned to snow during the night. The temperature was 32-38 degrees. The ground was covered with snow but the first two pictures were taken about 10:00 AM on Saturday and a lot of the snow had already melted. I think we got around 2 inches of rain and snow!! It got up to 58 degrees on Saturday. I am so ready for spring again and to get my garden dry enough to till and plant!

Here is a picture taken about 6:00 PM Saturday. Notice our "lakes" and that the snow is totally gone and it actually looks like spring again!
Poor dead leaves on one of our trees. The leaves were frozen in our cold week and so I'm guessing now that it will have to start all over to get new leaves.
Here is the tree that had such beautiful blossoms before and now they are ugly brown!
Ugly cherry blossoms:
Thankfully, there are some cherry blossoms that are still good!
We also have another crabapple tree that is slower in blooming and so it's becoming really beautiful now! Hopefully we'll get some fruit off of it.
Yesterday (Monday) was really nice in the 60's and today was about 58 degrees. We spent some time outside. It was nice to get out again! Just praying that it doesn't rain this week so we can get the garden tilled soon!
