It snowed again last night. This Maine winter seems endless--how hopeful this picture is! Yes, it brightens my day!

What kind of flowers?

Stationed in Kittery for the winter of '70-'71. Last measurable snow was April 7.

Forsythia. Donna has three of them out the back of the house...

How fortunate for you! I had a good friend who lived on Kittery Point and loved visiting. But you'd not recognize the area now.

Snow here too overnight, now it's pouring rain. Have a couple inches of slushy mess outside, cold, dark, gloomy, and wet. Could certainly use some brightening today.

Yes. Went back for a visit to Kittery-P'mouth in 2015. Glad I lived there when I did. Bicycled to Dover for tennis events. Dumb Jarhead. Lol

I think an entire regiment is concealed in the heavy growth.

Daffodils are blooming in N. Arizona. Snowed the last couple of days though.

My forsythia was beautiful this year. Now it's almost all green.

Oh, of course! I thought someone had wired a box of surgical gloves to some bare branches. I think we had one of those at my house growing up, but the only bush I really remember was the pyracantha, for obvious reasons.

The ones in front of my house were blooming last week or the week before. Last night it was so hot and muggy the air almost felt like steam.

Where are you?

April brings a lot of Thunderstorms and Tornadoes. I used to make a "pilgrimage" to Fort Pillow State Park each year for their weekend reenactment or go on the exact anniversary date but many of these trips were disrupted by these thunderstorms.
