It is spring time in Barron, WI!
Today the dogs and I walked the yard, searching for Signs of Spring, and our search did not go unrewarded! Of course, there are pictures to share with you all of our nature hike, proving that spring is indeed here in Barron, WI...

Weeds have officially "peeked up" through the cracks in my sidewalk...

Water is no longer frozen, but flowing freely in our yard...

We reveled in the 80 degree weather today and enjoyed our walk around the yard tremendously! I can't tell you how long I have waited for this weather! (Probably as long as all of you that live in the "Frozen Tundra"!)

Of course, the true Sign of Spring showed itself tonight.

A spring thunderstorm that brought with it a nasty little suprise...
(Please excuse the callouses on her palms--they are going through the Presidential Physical Fitness portion of their Phy Ed, and she has been doing chin-ups, as well as arm hangs on the bar. I am happy to report that so far, Abz is earning a BLUE ribbon!)

This was the view from our front porch...
Hail isn't a friend to those in the car business. Jamie assures me it was too small to do any harm, though...

Happy Spring!!!

Good to know that it is finally Spring. Two days ago it was 90 degrees here & yesterday it snowed. Ugh.
What a nice walk in the yard...looks as if your squirles still need to thaw out.
I was sure you were going to show a winter pile of doggie doo-doo! You have pleasantly surprised me.
