    We didn’t even have much snow this year not like last year thanks goodness, I’ll probs jinx it it now and it won’t stop raining all summer.lol

    My trees are still bare. It's been chilly lately, but the on again/off again rain is helping. My lawn needs mowing.
    There's only a few trees with leaves on yet, the oakes Ash and chestnuts are still to open yet, it was only due to that warm spell in April that caused most of the maples, beech and birch to pop already

    Had to take a picture of this wisteria looks amazing as usual every spring. it's well over a 100yrs old, it's just round the corner from me and spans two old cottage fronts that are over 200yrs old

    Wow, I thought for sure you had more yearly rainfall than I do here (in the mid-south)...we average 45-46" per year. A bit soggy, lol...but it keeps us green.
    And so far this year, we're at 26.6" with more coming tonight...

    Beautiful pictures, I'm jealous that a lot of you have spring already, up here in Canada we still have snow, though it is mostly melted away, we still have some days where it freezes. This time of year you never know what to wear, could be a winter coat one day and the next just a sweater. I plan on making my first vegetable garden this year as it is my first year/summer living in my new home, before that was crappy apartments with just enough yard to park. I'm just glad the -40 degree weather is gone.

    Good luck with the garden...my bro & his wife used to live in Duluth MN & I can remember them complaining that by the time their garden plants got close to producing
    their growing season ended... But be careful what you wish for, we have a long growing season in the South but the heat & humidity in summer are enough to make
    you wilt. I don't think I could take the cold like you have, but it's all what you get used to.

    I really don't think I could cope with - 40 that's for sure when it got to - 17 a few winters ago was bad enough, hope spring arrives soon for you
