It is WARM in Wisconsin

A while back I was battling depression and looking for signs of spring in my life and in my surroundings. Here are a few pictures from my backyard. Yes, spring has finally really sprung in Wisconsin.



I have beautiful pink peonies in in my yard, as does almost everyone in town. It's such a pity they don't last long! The smell...mmmm....like roses only more so.




And speaking of roses, here are some blooming in the side yard.


Daisies by the back deck.


Yellow Petunias! The color doesn't show up correctly, but they are a beutiful buttery color, and the blue ones are really purple. Those bright yellow flowers are something I never saw before but couldn't resist.


Marigolds and geraniums and some other things that haven't quite bloomed yet.....ah, we love our flowers up in da nortland....

Very pretty!
Spring is my favourite season of the year but it's winter here now.
Spring is so full of colour and life!

Love the peonies! They won't grow down here, it's far too warm.

I wish I had some peonies! We had them all over our front yard growing up... then I moved to "hotter-n-Hades" Oklahoma for ten years where they wouldn't grow!
