Not done yet.......

I guess since winter didn't show up in 'winter"... spring would be just as good a time to arrive. And while it is far from unusual to get some spring snow... it can be a bit depressing when you have already sat and had coffee in the sun on the deck... thinking of the good weather and that the snows are behind you.... 
But the good thing about spring storms, is they don't stick around long, and they don't have that mean punch that winter storms have. So...... I've decided to enjoy this (more than likely) last of the snow and do some picture taking instead....
I do have to say though, I'm not much of a gardener... I'd like to be, but plants and I... we don't seem to work well together. So, I have been quite excited to see that the bulbs I planted last fall had made an appearance... and now to see them covered with snow......

Everyone tells me that they're hardy... that they will come threw this just fine.... but they seem to look so sad.....
Camille is on "walk duty"... she had a flare up with her back - which she hurt four years ago - so, we got to enjoy some snow walks.... she doesn't seem to mind, and with her 13th birthday just around the corner.. she's seen all of this before....
Henry, on the other hand.... finds this all new... but I think he enjoyed it. He's been going outside more and more.. and even though I am still the "nervous" Mother.. I do like our cats going outside. We have them to do mouse duty, and watch over the farm.. plus I'm not the "cat box type person"... so, now that he's bigger.. he's been going out pretty much everyday. He doesn't stay out long.... but that will change as he gets older I am sure
Logan, Rosie and Cole.... these puppies don't mind the snow at all, and in fact, have such a great time all running about.....








Spring will be back soon.... and there will be cooking out and enjoying the deck.... and for today..


The woodstove is keeping the house warm and cozy........
