    @HeidiFindlay I went for a hike this weekend and found this Spring flower blooming here in Bozeman! Of course, we woke to snow on the ground this morning....

    @Kellieutzinger - Little says Spring like crocus blooms!! In Virginia, they start in February and sometimes poked through snow (food for the insects that wake early). I was at my dad's this weekend, outside of Tampa on the Gulf of Mexico, and found these beauties. I immediately thought of this post and snapped a few pictures. The last one is one of the fountains in Winter Park's Central Park. I look forward to more photos!!

    Great Spring pictures! Every year in Bozeman, MT the county closes about 8 miles of road (up to Hyalite reservoir) to cars for the month of April. Lots of people/families bike/walk/run on this road. It is like a get outside tradition. :)

    Looks like Bozeman and Grande Prairie, Alberta have similar weather patterns! We had a dump of snow on Wednesday and it's starting to melt again. There's a bit of green grass starting to show through in spots. #lovewhereyoulive

    Snow is not a problem in Florida. Mind you, nobody moves here for our summers.

    I'm truly enjoying all the pictures!
