[niyad]

1. the crocuses bloomed, dandelions are rampant, and lilacs are budding.

[flowomo]

2. April IS the cruelest month....

so the poet said.

[hisownpetard]

8. Short poem:

Qualifier

It's February, Sir,
that's the cruelest month,
once your days
are numbered.

3. Flowers in the snow? I wish I could see that.

Where I live we're lucky to get frost in January, let alone snow in April.

[niyad]

5. I have seen snow in every month in the year here.

it's rather interesting to see flowers and trees in full bloom on labour day, with several inches of snow on them.

and I have seen it 80 on christmas day

17. last year i had snow on my

fully pollen laden pussywillow. posted pics on my blog last year april i think. yep. just had up graded and finally able to post pics on pansypoos-rant-page.

12. redbuds lilacs forsythia, apples, pears and tulips, I can see looking out my window

dogwoods and wild plums are blooming too. everything is pretty much on the down side of blooming now here though.

4. I miss Spring

I am in Florida where there is nothing by endless, HOT, Summer. I cannot stand it. Absoultely miss the 4 seasons.

[niyad]

7. I know what you mean. florida drove me crazy.

can you possibly move?

I have maintained for years that the limp dick state needs to be sawed off at the border and floated into the bermuda triangle, where it clearly belongs

[HockeyMom]

13. Have to wait until we can retire

maybe 5 or 6 years. UGH. Besides, it isn't JUST the weather I cannot stand about this state. Need I state what the political climate is like?

New Yorker FOREVER.

14. believe me, I KNOW--I was on the phone to tallahassee every week, and

on daily calls to my local idiots. I knew I was in real trouble when I had to go all the way to tallahassee to find someone who knew what the hell recall elections are.

6. A bit east of you in the Lehigh Valley and it smelled like spring yesterday!

Not only that, but I noticed the weeds are now growing in the lawn, mower time is coming soon x(

[flowomo]

9. yep, bought a greasegun last week...

have to lube up the Deere's deck.

[mitchtv]

10. time to clean the pool

90's this weekend. Palo verdes and aloe in bloom

[cornermouse]

11. The fruit trees are blooming,

The hyacinths are pretty and smell good. The whole state is the middle of flooding. People are being told to leave their homes and go to higher ground. And it's going to freeze for at least 2 nights this weekend which will cancel all the flowers, all the fruit, and make removing water and mud from submerged homes difficult. ...I'm trying to get excited about spring. ...Really... ...I am.

[pansypoo53219]

15. sure, my pussywillow TREE is

popping, and the tulips up(not blooming yet). stuck in spinter here. 12" snow up north. but my chippies are zipping around. no spring tho.

once pussy willows pass 15', they're trees. right? this one is near 30.

[flowomo]

19. I'd say 30' qualifies!

mine are about 18' and under attack from a very aggressive clematis that's supposed to live a few feet over but grabs onto everything in sight.

[eShirl]

16. spring has sprung, the grass has riz

I wonder where the flowers is?

(etc.)

18. Bemidji had a real blizzard this morning. n/t
