Down Come The Flowers

0021

This was yesterday, bright, beautiful, 70 degrees, and the sun was shining…

004

The Daffodils were in bloom all the way up to the front steps.

But there in the blue skies, was an unhappy sight…

011

That is one big bad snow and ice storm headed our way.

007

The temperature was rapidly dropping, so I went inside to grab my scissors, and cut down the daffodils before the snow got them…

I gathered a big bowl, and went out bare-foot, so I could enjoy the cool Spring grass between my toes for just a moment, and I snipped them all. I lost all of my flowers last year to a late snow storm in April, it just made me too sad to see them go again.

014

I made three big bouquets to decorate the house with, so at least there is a little Spring indoors.

And here it is, the view from today. The ice hit late last night, and the snow is still falling…

So much for a warm Spring Day.
