April showers?

I have to take a shot of this tree every time I go to the Bird Sanctuary for a walk. I haven't been here since before the flood in 2013. Only a small portion of the area is open as there is still a lot of debris hiding in the area. I live to the right (the golf course is on the other side of the river.. you can see how the river "ate" away at the banks).

Picked some flowers from the garden the other day to put in the kitchen window. The peony has opened nicely today.

Popcorn popper. Nothing beats popcorn made in one of these. I like to keep a spare. Found this new in the box for $2 at a garage sale.

I am pulling from the blues. These are earrings, necklace, and a plaque my niece made using seashells from the beach my husband and I met at. In the resin mixture are some of his ashes. I absolutely love them. By the way my area of Texas is experiencing flooding again but thank God my subdivision is not flooding. Pray for the rain to stop! So many people have lost everything again. They have been rescuing people, horses, cattle, dogs, cats. Bless them!

As usual, spring is coming in fits and starts. We had 60 mph winds yesterday and then the temps dropped down into the 20s overnight and this morning. But still things are greening up.

murraysmom, we had a full fledged blizzard here last night. It had been raining then snowing since late afternoon, but by a little after 9pm. the wind and snow began big time. It was a white-out for the cars on the highway beyond, they had their flashers on. It continued for 45min. then the wind finally died down. This morning there was at least 3" of snow on the ground and the road out front was ice. Now temp is going up so ice is gone and I see green patches coming out from beneath the snow. The daffodils are flattened.

The almanac had called for a blizzard at the end of March, so they weren't far off.

Fierce winds here last night brought 23 degrees and an inch of snow this morning. Ugh!

The latest puzzle.

Just got home. 8 hour drive... and really nice and warm out, but my house is cold. It was 81 when I crossed over to Oklahoma.

Carol, I like your poppies. This is from the ABQ botanical gardens

Schoolhouse, your weather (and Gazania too) sounds like a nightmare. The only saving grace is that now it disappears pretty quickly. I'm glad I didn't have to be out in that!!!
