The last of the snow this morning.
By this afternoon - whoo-hoo! It's finally all gone!
This is a flock of swans that flew by this evening - the first flock I have seen this year.

Day 103
Today our oldest son is 23 - my husband made the cake - strawberry black forest cake -it was delicious.
The last of the snow was spread around to speed melting.
There is baseball practice going on in the field.

Day 101
These tulips came up since yesterday (that section of the garden has a lot of rocks!).
That's what +15℃ does!

Day 97
When I started taking these melting snow pictures I thought it would take about 2 weeks. It has been over 3 weeks!
This drift is still a few feet deep (my son dug out a cross section), so we still have a long way to go.

Day 95
My three men were moving the snow around, trying to get it to melt faster.
Later in the day it looked like this.

Day 93
Begonias under the grow lights - one month to go before they can be planted outside.
There is a train on the horizon today.

Day 92
This sparrow seems to be staking his claim on the birdhouse.
It is nice to see so many birds (crows and robins).

Day 89
The sunlight made the branches of the dogwood bush glow this morning.
My oldest son took me for a ride on the quad today - it was lovely to be out in warmer weather.
One more week and I think the snow will be gone!

Day 88
Slowly, but surely!
It looks like the shed is surrounded by a moat (the water drains to the back of the yard).
❤Joanne
Day 86
There are thin layers of ice all over the yard.
The Juncos hope in and out of the holes looking for food, but I couldn't get a good picture.
❤Joanne
Day 85
The thaw has come to a standstill - the temperatures are well below normal, -15℃ tonight.
❤Joanne
