And then it was spring and finally summer

I finally have a garden again and it’s a wonderful feeling.
It’s not winter anymore…
So this winter we’ve had a lot of ice storms. First day we received a half inch of ice.
And then we got another two inches of ice the next day.
My love waiting patiently while I stopped the car mid- drive in the middle road to take some pictures of the ice storm magic.
And on the third day it snowed 12″.
And everything was heavy….
Overall it was a record-breaking winter full of below 0ºF days and over 120″ of snow fall. Spring arrived early summer.
