I'm in Missouri and so GLAD to see flowers blooming.
Anyone else have flowers blooming?

Oh Pooh on you! It is back to cold again here. My stuff is trying to pop up. I have an amaryllis on my window sill, given to me at Christmas. It said it would bloom in 2 months; the green is only 3 inches high and will probably take another month to get even close to blooming. It kills me that winter is even INSIDE. Guess I will have to go BUY some flowers to look at.

Double Pooh!!!!!!!! We have four foot snow piles in our yard and we are expecting a storm Tues, Wed and Thurs!

We still have high school basket ball and hockey tournaments to go through before Spring even thinks about arriving in Minnesota. And all of you Minnesotans will attest to that, I am sure, right??????? It is two weeks and two days before Spring arrives, not to mention DST is coming this month sometime. This weather has to get its act together here. Of course I remember April 6, 1952, my confirmation day, Palm Sunday - Snowed like a sun of a gun!!!!!! So here, who knows! But I do love the crocuses, tulips, daffodils and hyacinths when they come up. Oh, it'll come. Edie

Ok you all in SW PA send some to the west central part too.
I have seen some in town but we are up on a hill and ours come a little later.
Edie-I know what you mean my DS was born April 3, 1982 and we had a ice storm so bad that they wouldn't let me leave until the next day.

Couldn't be happier for you. Here in central Mn the snow is still very deep...more to come next week. Can only appreciate your joy of blooming flowers.

not yet, but the weeds are sure thriving....$#@!

Nothing outdoors as yet but my 2009 Christmas Cactus is blooming for the 10th time in a year! I am afraid to move it because it is so happy on the shelf.

I wonder which one of us will get the most!!!!! Hopefully it will skirt the Twin Cities like it did this past week. Edie

Took a drive to Springfield, TN yesterday to the Antique Barn where we remembered seeing some old machines in the basement. Alas, they were all very nasty but I did get some Blue Nordic plates and a wood thread rack with a heart at the top.

But it was a beautiful day of almost 70 but overcast and very windy with the storm on the way.

We took I-65 south to the turn off but came back up on country roads. We saw TONS of daffs and several fields with Spring lambs frolicking and also the kids with the Momma goats. I haven't noticed any foals yet though.

I'm a little further south of you in central Arkansas, so our crocus were blooming a couple of weeks ago. The daffodils are in full bloom right now, along with the hyacinths and pear trees. Spring is definitely sprung down here. :D
