Spring Snow

It's spring, yet it's 25 F (-4 C) and snowing hard. This is a maple tree in my yard blooming against the contrast of the snow. Sorry for the blur, but it was hard to focus through the snow.

  Lol, thanks. I feel bad for the plants and animals living outside. They were so happy last week with the warmer temps. This must be a shocker. Posted 11 months ago

    We had a great week last week too. Also a swing to the low later this week, but not that low. Posted 11 months ago
