What Happened to April Showers?

If April showers bring May flowers, what will snow storms bring? Many of us in northern Wisconsin are left wondering.

Hayward, WI received at least 11 inches of snow, yesterday, with a snow advisory still in effect 'til later this evening. Here in Eau Claire, we only had enough to cover up any signs of spring.

Not that any of this is going to last, but when you are looking forward to something and it gets delayed, it can be a bit disheartening.

Mother Nature, after all, should not be tossing snowflakes and hurling hail at us, this time of year! It's just not in compliance with the laws of the land many of us would like to believe exists. Hummm--and some scientists still believe we have global warming? I think not!

Wouldn't You Know It?

Wouldn't you know it--only in Wisconsin will you have a delivery arrive from a nursery while a winter weather advisory is in effect for Eau Claire!!! And a heavy snow advisory is in effect for the surrounding area!!! What happened to spring???

Well, these dormant plants will be spending a few more weeks dozing in our garage until I can plant them into pots... before they can actually be planted in the ground!

Please, Think Spring!!!
