First Day of Spring!

The first day of spring was a beautiful day in Saint John; sunny and warm!

This was March 31st of last year…

There are tulips just barely poking up…

I think it’s safe to say that spring has sprung.

Lucky you...I went looking in my garden today hoping something would be popping up, but no luck, despite the beautiful weather. :o(

yay! I have yet to see any flowers poking through over here, but my mission tomorrow is to find some.

We had lovely weather on the first day of spring.
Today, however, winter has returned. Sigh.
Enjoy your spring flowers. It will be a few weeks before we have any around here!

Yeah!!! Spring is here in NS too. :)

Such a difference between now and this time last year weather-wise.

And garlic! Yay! :)

Spring around Winnipeg is pretty nice too. I have ZERO complaints about an early spring.

I like the current spring much better than last year's -- even in Oregon it's nicer.

Hi JC,

Thanks for following my site. Spring has been very nice here but last night the temps fell to -5. I had to cover all my Hellebores with cloches, upturned pails, cardboard boxes etc. Thankfully temps are up again Sunday.
