IS IT SPRING YET?

As the temperature hovers in the 60's, buds and tiny flowers are popping out on the trees.



But hold on.  Old Man Winter has (at least) one more shot.  A winter storm is due to hit the state this weekend with heavy snow in the forecast.

He likes to play these games most every year.

Beautiful shots!
The buds here are well..asleep. They are terrified to pop their heads out.
Freezing rain tonight :)

The images you took are great. One thing I don't miss about living in cold climes, is the bipolar nature of the weather: hot, cold, warm, cold. Perhaps the AMA should drop large doses of Celexa into the clouds.

I would love to have one last shot at winter, but I don't think it's gonna happen in Texas. We've already seen the 80's. I just hope we can stretch out spring and delay summer as looooooong as possible. :)

I have been seeing pink trees everywhere! These pictures are so pretty. I hope the buds survive the next few days.

We are hovering in the 80's down here in Texas. Just ain't normal for this time of year.

Loved the pics.
