I’ve been watching the amaryllis that I purchased in early November…

it is now in the sleigh with some of the snow people and it seems to be doing okay… I added some of the solar lights in and around the melt (group of snow people)… I kind of like it…

both of the little babies on the sides of the main bulb have started to shoot up, and even the original bulb is starting to have a bit of green peek out…

got these two little cuties while grocery shopping the other day…

the tree will join the rest of the forest once they make their way out for their seasonal display…

not sure if the snowperson will join the melt (group of snow people), or make its way onto the Christmas tree…

snow-free…

I’ve been taking pictures regularly as the view changes out the front window…

I was so happy this afternoon as I took this photo of the front yard… looks like the snow is slowly melting away…

looking forward to a snow-free front lawn…

and sadly, this is what the front door camera showed a few minutes ago, sigh…

sigh…

yesterday it rained… crazy eh…

I went out before it really got going to clear the snow in front of the patio door…

for the last week or so it has been stuck and only opened about six inches…

seemed like a good plan to deal with it before the rain, in case it freezes into ice back there…

took quite a while and a lot of effort to get the snow moved… it was much heavier and had more chunks in it… the hill next to the deck is high again, so I’ve had to walk along the path before throwing the snow into the garden…

but, got it done… there is still tons of snow on the deck although the rain and wind and warmer weather have certainly melted some of it…

it will be interesting to see how it is going to melt, or whether there will be more than one pond in the space..

the weather has been very odd over the last week…

on Friday it snowed all day and into Saturday… everything was covered… then it started to melt and by today it is nearly all gone…

above shows the front yard Saturday on the top and today on the bottom…

the backyard has changed a lot as well… yesterday there was still a fair bit of snow on the deck and by the pond… today it is almost completely gone…

crazy, but I hope to be able to sit out there soon…

started the day with a lovely hot tub…

although tons of snow has melted, there is still quite a bit covering the garden… took a photo when I got out of the tub…

this afternoon my grandson filled the bird feeders and then shovelled some of the snow so that it might melt a bit faster when the sun shines…

birds are gonna be happy…
