Positively More April

 by Mauverneen



The April showers continue - but this week, it's a bit of snow. Hard to take after several days of 70 degree temps! But we cope, as we always do. And, being April, we know it won't last long. That's something to be positive about.

Trees are in bloom, flowers are coming up, the sun is shining and we've gotten to spend some days outdoors. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to walk out the door without first having to grab a coat  - and gloves - and boots - and a scarf...

It's hard to comprehend that April is already half over. Wasn't New Year's Eve just last week?? Seems that way. 

Have a Positively Wonderful day. 

Look how the grass has greened up! And the trees are starting to bud. You can also see my 'topped off' tree behind the shed. The top 20 or 30 ft of it got snapped off in that last storm and landed in the neighbor's yard - on his shed.

Positively April Showers

 by Mauverneen

March came in like a lion and went out roaring! But now it's April...

Those showers will bring those flowers, but it also makes the grass green, the trees bud, and even the birds seem happier. 



Keep those umbrellas handy!
