Today is not the day for me to jump for joy. Curmudgeoness Feb 2012 #3
It's about 55 degrees out (in PA) with 40 mph winds. This shit is weird. HopeHoops Feb 2012 #4
Well, here in W PA, snow has ruled today. Curmudgeoness Feb 2012 #5
Oh, yeah THAT's a shock. I lived in Clarion for four years. Normal. HopeHoops Feb 2012 #6
We had one of those last week. beac Feb 2012 #9
This just goes to show that spring is here.... Curmudgeoness Feb 2012 #12
I saw daffodils blooming in someone's yard today. beac Feb 2012 #13
As much as I like spring weather... Ruby Reason Feb 2012 #7
Yep. We changed zones too. HopeHoops Feb 2012 #8
Kinda scarey if you ask me. Ruby Reason Mar 2012 #17

Spring starts early this year. Denninmi Feb 2012 #14
I've got crocus blooming and daffodils not far behind. Spring's here as far as they're concerned. HopeHoops Feb 2012 #15
That sounds like a lot of work. Ruby Reason Mar 2012 #21
I sleep under it. Yes, I love that tree. The cherries aren't all that great, but the tree is. HopeHoops Mar 2012 #24
a whole month early for me stuntcat Mar 2012 #16
Yeah, I have been shoveling snow all week. More today. But it is close. Can't wait. jwirr Mar 2012 #19
My wife just finished pruning back and raking the asparagus bed. It will be early this year. HopeHoops Mar 2012 #20
Asparagus is worth the effort. Ruby Reason Mar 2012 #22
There's not much effort anymore - just cut down the old growth and rake it out. HopeHoops Mar 2012 #25
Yes, it is either a fall effort or spring (or both), but worth it! Ruby Reason Mar 2012 #26
well, almost! shanti Mar 2012 #27
