spring? I got 10-15cms of snow on Saturday. I had to get the snow blower out.
 
The frost finally left the ground the last week. Smells like rain outside. I've missed that.
 
I walked the dog two days in a row now. Tonight, I said something about a walk, which usually gets her attention, and she had a look of terror on her face. Because when it's just me, we go for about 35 minutes. When my wife goes, it's only about 20 because of her knees and ankle.
 
It has been pretty spring-like in WI the past couple days. Now it is supposed to snow on Thursday :(
 
I was actually happy just to be able to cut my grass this weekend

Same here, except I pretty much just hacked up the weeds so I could weed 'n' feed the grass.

My wife is planting the first round of veggies in our garden today.

We got pollen bombed over the weekend. Everything is yellow.

The bumblebees and wasps are out in force.

Perfect cycling weather.

Don't forget your allergy meds!
 
March is the most beautiful month in Phoenix. April is allergy season - one the plus side the air smells like citrus blooms everywhere you go, but you're also itching your eyes and blowing your nose.

Once that's over you get a few good warmish/hot weekends before six months of sheer brutality and indoor hibernation.

Since we're talking weather, it literally rained mud yesterday. We had a huge all day dust storm that loaded up the air with dirt, followed by some showers that coated everything in mud. Look at my wife's car, this is from a 15 minute drive.
