Here it is on May 2nd and I’m looking out the window at big snowflakes coming down. The past few days were in the upper 70s and today is in the low 30s. There is a chance for 3-5 inches of snow before the end of tomorrow. What a surprise.

I must admit it is quite beautiful to see the big white flakes falling in front of the trees with green leaves. The snow collecting on the green grass is an odd sight. The snow is starting out very wet which makes me nervous that it will be heavy and collect on the growing leaves, causing branches to break and come down.

The saddest part (aside from not enjoying 70-80 degree weather) is that the tulips are in bloom and looking gorgeous. Here they are at the beginning of the snowfall:

Here’s hoping the snow doesn’t last long and Spring returns with the smile that it showed yesterday!
