guess it must still be winter

I was noticing,a couple of days ago, that the crocuses and tulips are starting to poke through the leaf mulch, in my flower beds. We've had a very mild winter, with almost no snow ( which use to be, when i was much younger, very unusual) so far - and then this morning:

I guess winter isn't quite over yet

, hope the flowers recover. At least I don't have to drive or work on it, today.

We didn't have winter this year.

Ours has never stopped. Although it did get above 40F today and the sun is shining. Lots of snow still on the ground.

We've had one of the worst winters in a long time here, and to think I moved back from phoenix for this... Uggg.

The winter 2013-2014 in the South-eastern USA has been pretty brutal. I'm hoping my citrus and other semitropical plants will make it. Took a look at them this afternoon, and they look like they are budding out. Problem is we're still 26 days from spring, so I'm hoping we don't have any more of what we had towards the end of January.
