Flash Friday 55...Easter Flurries


For winter to end we must have two things. Easter flurries is the second to last cold snap or snow before Spring can come alive for real.

The inches of snow that cover the spring flowers will be gone soon.

We await Blackberry Winter to nip the fruit buds before we can truly welcome Spring.

Having some fun with Flash Friday.

Nice!
We've not had snow for Easter, but it hasn't been this cold in March in ages.

Not the blackberries! I just hate it when the lilac buds are frozen, and all we got were shriveled brown branches. But, please, spare the blackberries and peaches!

I think a lot of us are asking where the heck is spring . The temps are not spring like here either . Hopefully by April it will truly be spring everywhere ! Nice shot . Have a good day !

Spring seems to be an ever elusive thing around here! We like to call it Sprinter...for it is a mix of winter and spring!

We always get one more frost before the hot weather sets in for the season. But, this year, it seems winter has decided to switch places with spring. Not that I'm complaining- I love winter!- but I was ready to wear capris to school because the warm temps have been here for so long. I shaved my legs for goodness sakes. LOL

Shouldn't Easter flurries be an oxymoron? I guess not!

(just in California)
