Another Snow Day...

First my crocus bloomed, 

then it snowed.
Yes on March 4th, 2016 we received about 4 inches of snow here at the Jersey Shore.
It's not totally unheard of...
to have to brush the snow off of the crocus just to see them.
But when they bloomed, it was beautiful outside.
We had four straight days of beautiful, springlike temperatures.
Then this happened in the backyard...



and here in the front yard.
It never stuck to the road or driveway, just grassy areas.





Another snow day, no cleanup required!!

Newly fallen snow is so very pretty, but I would prefer to have crocuses!

Good morning, Debbie. This is the best kind of snow for me. It does not stick to the roads, only on the trees and bushes. It looks so pretty. I love your crocus. Happy Sunday, enjoy your new week!

Hi Debbie!:) These are beautiful pictures, and lovely macro shots of the crocuses and heaped snow. The weather conditions are so unpredictable these days. Here, one day it's sunny and springlike, and the next it's pouring down with rain with a rapid drop in temperature. Crazy!! Debbie, I have only just noticed that I am not a membour of your blog, so I'm going to rectify that right now.:)

Both the crocuses and fresh snow on the trees and grass are beautiful. Over here, I am sweating in front of my computer.

Your snow is so fresh and lean looking. Ours is dingy and done. Enjoy it while you can.

Michelle said...

A bummer after the nice temps but boy was it Beautiful!! When out for a walk yesterday we saw some green leaves popping up in the field but no flowers yet, getting excited!!

BeachGypsy said...

Crocuses are beautiful photographed in the snow as well...did yoy get any like that? Reminds me of the lyrics in an old Barbara Streisand song" like a rose under the april snow". Think the song was "evergreen"? About 1976 or 1977? Do you remember. The movie was ' a star is born'

Beautiful! I wish it would snow here one more time, but I don't believe that's going to happen! It's a nice snow when you can get around and still enjoy the beauty!

Oh, I see graphics on this one. I loved the black and white look of the snow ones. The first and last ones really caught my eye. Hugs for this one~

Pretty little flowers. The snow is beautiful, but it's so hard to see it once flowers bloom. That's a real bonus, when it doesn't stick to the road/sidewalks - a kinder, gentler snow!
