It was wintry here on the first day of spring and tomorrow some areas are to get up to 20 inches of snow. Yikes!! I had a few of my crocuses open but then it got cold and snowy so I think that's it for them. Anyway, you've got a beautiful shot here, Jeffrey! #1520195

The weather isn't sure it's Spring yet, so it's wonderful seeing your crocuses.

Stunning image, Jeff! It's a fave!
