Early Spring forest wildflowers

Looks so tranquill Lori :-)

Oh, thats so pretty! I cant believe how green it looks Lori. I havent seen any green for....oh, four days now! How on earth do you get through your winters?! Lol

One of the most wonderful things about living here, Dawn.
LOL..Karen. I just bore folks to death with my "Archive" photos. Then, when spring does arrive I disappear altogether because I'm outside all day!

You have a good life Lori.
Once things get busy outside I vanish a little too, I don’t have time to even take photos then!
Karen, I’ve got used to seeing just white too and when I look at garden now it’s thawing it’s green again, happy days

Here's the perspective that living here gives me, ladies. After the colour burst in autumn there are weeks of brown, brown, brown...and some wet; then the long winter with the stark contrast of brown and white...mostly white; then early spring back to brown with some white..and sopping wet; then finally in May it's green and colourful again!...If only the nine months of winter were active months. Alas, the older I get the less I like winter and I thought I'd never, ever, get to that point.

Only two months until you're in the green again then Lori :)
It's hard to believe after our dreadful weather last week in the UK that by the end of May (12 weeks) out trees will be in full leave and the gardens too.

Oh Dawn...that will be lovely, but yes, it feels like a distant dream! Saturated here now and roads like streams. But I can see the garden aggain! :)

Oh Karen, one thing after another, get your boat out, when you're wandering around the garden mid summer with watering cans, think back to this day lol.
Our thaw was quite gradual so not too bad here.

Yes, nice gradual thaw here too...but its been constantly pouring with hardly a break since the snow started.

What a nuisance.

The green empty lot next to my home is about to become 11 Townhomes. You are luckier then you know Lori.
