2011~2012...the "Un-Winter"

Here it is...March 19, 2012...there's not a chunk of dirty snow or ice to be found anywhere!  That's very unusual for this time of year, here in central New York.  I remember winters past when we've had St. Patrick's Day blizzards, two or three years in a row.  Not this year!  It was such a mild winter, I only had to shovel four times...two times in the same day...then it melted away.  (I should mention here, I mowed the lawn in November...that's a first!)

And we're enjoying such mild temperatures.  Yesterday, the slope by the college was filled with students lying in the sun!  In my 71 years, there has never been a winter like this...hence, the "UN-WINTER."

Today is no exception...it's beautiful!  The sun is bright, the sky is blue and there are birds chirping happily outside my window.   Who could ask for a lovelier day!
