Saturday night before we went to bed, Tracy brought in the basket of violas I had purchased earlier in the day. An ice storm was predicted for Sunday, and when I saw the basket of flowers sitting next to the snow shovel, I just had to take a photo.
There were a couple of positives that came out of it all: we didn't lose power, and I finally had a subject for this month's Five in Five meme hosted by Sandie.
Yesterday as we were getting ready to go to the belated Easter celebration at my brother-in-law's I hopped out of the car with my iPhone and took a bunch of photos of the ice-encrusted plants and stone wall.
These photos are a far cry from the ones Honoré posted a day or so ago from Washington, D.C. We aren't expected to see temperatures much above the high 40's all week so I think flowering trees and beautiful tulips are still in our distant future.
