March 22


What a difference a day (or two) makes!
Two days ago everything was covered in snow. Today, after a day of sunshine yesterday, the snow is gone and I found our crocus blooming. I guess Spring really is here!

Amazing how such a tiny flower can look so huge in a close-up shot. Mari, isn't it just wonderful to see these flowers returning.

Spring is coming!!!

Reminds me of the song, "The King is coming, the King is coming, praise God He's coming again."

I love how close you got to the crocus. It's been so warm here that our tulips are in full bloom already and the daffodils are on their way out.

Brenda said...

Well, our crocuses are peeking out of the ground too, so there is hope! However, at this moment, sleet is pelting our windows. Go figure!

Yay... Spring! I need to plant crocus so then I can tell when Spring is here too!!! *Ü*

Crocus were always my barometer that Spring had sprung! It's the most welcome sight of Spring I can think of :-)
