Shucks! They cancelled the Daffodil Festival in Gloucester, Virginia that was scheduled for this week end. My son Eddie sent me this picture of his house to show me why!
Please try not to be upset if it makes you have to call off your plans to go!

Well, we didn't have a white Christmas so I guess we'll settle for a white Easter here in NE Ohio! :p It's too bad though that plans for 'spring' festivites had to be canceled.

Shucks is right. :( It's a pretty scene, if it were December. :mad: All
of my flowering plants are having a rough time of it & the blooming flowers
are wilted with our return of Winter. Below freezing last 3-4 nights.

We had a bit of snow the other night but luckily, none of it stuck. Our last 3 nights of freezing temps have killed my lilac blooms for this year however. I feel so gyped. I waited all year for them to bloom, now they didn't get to stay as long as they should, which isn't long enough anyway.

I feel your pain!!! well, ok not as badly, but I feel it none the less!!! ;) :D

The snowstorm in OH/IN yesterday was my fault.

It was scheduled just for my driving pleasure!

Oh no! I absolutely hate it when that kind of weather arrives when all the spring plants are budding. It just kills all those lovely buds stone dead!

Poor MOFF! I am so sorry about your lilacs!

And, driving in it is never any fun!

My experience with driving in the stuff is "ZERO!"... When I get off a boat up north in the winter and snow/sleet/ice is expected... The office knows I will NOT drive in it and either send a driver to get me or OK a motel room somewhere if needed.
