We are getting a warm streak and everything is melting then turning to ice.

Snow is gone, grass is turning green and the trees are just beginning to bud.

Sky is bluer, grass is greener, buds are bigger but not out yet. They keep tempting us, "tomorrow, maybe ..."

Photo was taken at 2200, 25 minutes before sunset.. Leaves are beginning to show but we are having a dry spring so the signs of winter linger.
