Our backyard today!

Yes, we have a spring - almost :)
But on a southern side of a house are crocuses growing - I will take a photo
about them.

Thank you very much for your visits and comments !

@john4jack: We had last night -10C ( 14F ), hopefully crocuses have managed! I see it a little later today. Thank you for dropping by!

Your very long days of sunshine will soon take away the snow.
I'm happy you have your crocuses growing on the southern side! :D

Lapsena aina sanoimme tästä lumensulamisvaiheesta, että tuolla on jo kesää. Siis silloin kun puiden juuret ja aitan takaseinän vierusta alkoivat paljastua. Hyvää kevättä!
