I live in Florida. I don’t really celebrate over the arrival of spring. It means very hot, humid weather is heading our way. But fall is something to celebrate!

---

@willdob3.....if I lived in Florida would probably be looking forward to fall too.

It will be just over 50 today and in 60s later in the week. The lake ice is thin, but I see open water around our shore, but overall, I am still looking out to a white lake. Birds singing. I will miss winter, but spring is definitely here. I spent an hour or so on one of our screened porches today! 

March here in the north is different from what I knew as a child in the St. Louis ‘burbs. I imagine you have green things sprouting! No sign of that where I live.

---

@libbyannE......Yes, it is a lot different now in the "burbs".  It is much different now than when I first moved here from San Antonio in 1957.  Climate Change is doing its thing on us....and is alive and kicking.

Not a lot sprouting yet.  No Forsythia yet, usually one of the first of the season.  But some of the trees are starting to get buds....still a way to go though.  No grass turning green yet either.

Thrilled to have survived the long, wicked winter. Delighting in sunshine, warmer weather and anxious for dry days ahead with a lot of lucious green grass and many gorgeous plants! Mother Nature was nasty the past several months. We need calm and peaceful weather in our lives to regroup. 

---

@BirkiLady.....With the time change and now the season change, regrouping is a good idea.

Yay! Getting closer and closer to SUMMER!!! My lake is in its beginning stages of melting. But this year is going to take a lot longer. We have record ice thickness so we may still be seeing big ice chunks floating around in June. 

---

@ID2.....Sorry to hear that.  Think that is what is called Climate Change.  No idea what all that will be affecting.

The flowers and trees are in bloom and it was beautiful this morning. 🌻

I’m glad I put the dogs (& my) coats on because there was a heavy frost. It was 32 degrees. 

We didn’t go far because the dogs like their heat vent and breakfast,🐶🐶

By 10 the sun had warmed things up so we took a long walk. The air smelled so fresh even with pollen I didn’t care.🌞

---

@1Snickers.....glad you and your dogs in your coats got to go out for a long walk.  The smell of fresh clean air is very invigorating.

OMGOSH!  80 degrees today in Seattle!   Hottest first day of spring on record!  Going from 40 degrees to suddenly 80 degrees is a shock to the system....at least mine!  

When I was 7 year old, I wrote this poem and still remember the words all these  many years....it is not very good....remember this is a 7 year old....😄

Spring Is Here.

Spring Is There.

Spring Is Even In The Air.

I Can feel It in My Nose.

Because It Tingles Like My Toes!

And The Bees Come Out, And Make   People  Scream.

That's How I Know This Is SPRING!
