Spring?


So much for Spring! Just this past weekend with the temperatures so warm, we were sorting through our seeds to see what we were going to plant this year. Because of the weather here, we don't normally start planting until May (We have a very short growing season).
But we were lulled into a false sense of 'Spring'.....

I know the saying 'March roars in like a lion and goes out like a lamb' has it's origins in the fact that the constellations of Leo and Aries travel our skies through the beginning and ending of March.......However, right now it seems that March is trying to go out with a roar!
We have had such beautiful weather this month, highs in the 60's and yes, also our spring winds (20 to 30 mile an hour).

So what happened to Spring?

We are now expecting 7 to 10 inches of snow, with highs in the 20's and low's in the 9's, today, tonight and tomorrow!
The Iris's were just starting to peek out of the earth and with the snow finally melted in our yard, small patches of green are beginning to show....
Very unfair.
We are ready for spring!
