Daffy Spring Weather

Day 170: The weather's gone daffy! I got up to two inches of snow on the ground this morning, and it was falling so thickly, I could barely see the fence. As the day warmed up, the stuff on the ground melted off (for the most part), but it continued to come down hard. This is the kind of snow I like best, looks like a blizzard going on outside the window, but it doesn't stack up on the ground.

In a couple of weeks, I'll have white drifts of another sort in my garden. The narcissuses (or "narcissi," if you prefer) are getting ready to open! But for today, Spring's gone back to bed beneath a blanket of snow, reluctant to get up and go about her business.
