The difference of a few warm days

My yard is a barometer of local weather.

We waited long, and hard, for Spring. Plant life was either stunted or non-existent until, it looks like, a day or two ago.

Now the lawn needs mowing every other day, foliage is everywhere and even strawberries are beginning to fruit. A heap of small flowers have appeared, and even two poppies have made their presence known.

I fear my wife is encouraging this proliferation by constant hand watering, as she enjoys her yard and garden once more in warmer temperatures.

In spite of this encouraging growth, a cold front with high winds has arrived again.

Larry, Nice photo collage and quite a bit going on in your yard!  We can relate, Liz has been going into overdrive the last couple of years adding flowers and assorted decorative plants to our yard!

Larry, I'm begging for a cold front. We've had record heat for almost 2 weeks now. It may hit 100 tomorrow!

Larry, these are beautiful signs of spring. I especially love the red poppies - they look so pretty against the green. What a great collage! I am impressed. I still haven't figured out how to do it.

Dear Larry -
Your summer joy is a product you should "pack up" in safe storage for when the winter gets to you again this year! You were certainly anxious for Spring! Our strawberries have flowered already - hope I get to the before the birds do!
Have a happy day -
Lynn
