April Days

Do you suppose that this will be the last entry in the blog this spring with pictures of snow? As April is nearly at the half-way mark, perhaps it will be. However,  there is plenty of snow in today's photos. We got out of the house and took a ride to the camp. We were really disappointed that we couldn't get in because the snow was too deep. Here is what we saw:

Driving down the lake further, we could see that the ice was getting soft in this picture from the boat landing.

It does still look like winter out there! We had hoped to see some deer, but we only spotted a couple off in the distance on the way to Ashland.
The snow is finally melting, but the raised beds are still hidden. The snow is half-way down the fence now.

Our back yard has turned into a lake as the fields behind us melt.

And we found a waterfall today, as we could hear the water trickling down the garden steps.

The encouraging note is that the temperature was 52 this afternoon, one of the very few warm, sunny days we have seen. We still have a fire in the fireplace.
The tomatoes that we planted a few weeks ago have been transplanted into individual pots. Someday they will go in the garden!

And spring moves along, at a slow pace!
