Nature's Tug-Of-War! :)

 The following photos are shown in the order they were taken! :)
 We start with a pink sunrise, warning of a change in weather! :)
 Then came the snow! :)
 It's not uncommon for us to have snow in Feb., but it felt unreal on the heels of Spring-like weather.
 After a full day of snow, with it thawing part of the time, we ended up with 3 inches! :)
 In western WA, we don't usually say Valentine's Day and snow in the same sentense! :)
 I try to have flower beds cleaned by Valentine's Day, since the plants are pushing new growth! :)
 This has put me behind this year. No yard clean up or pruning today! :)

 Or the next day, ...







 Or the day after that! :)

 Can you see the Anna Hummer sitting on the feeder? I've kept it thawed enough to drink. :)



 The sun stretches out her warm arms but it's too late in the day! :)
 Night comes and the snow remains.

 The following day the sky starts to break up! :)


 There's Blue in that sky! :)

 Follwed by pink, signally another change in weather! :)

 "How I love the green, green grass of home!" :)
 But wait! What's That?
 An impressive storm moving in! :)
 Look at That! :) That's Some Sunset, isn't it!? :)

 It's the kind of color that makes one stop what they're doing and just stand and look! :)
 "Red sky at night, sailor's delight." :)
 Followed by a frosty pink sunrise! :)
 "Red sky in morning, sailor's take warning." When they happen back-to-back, it seems to mean nice days and cold nights, which is what we've been having! :)
We end this March post as we started it, with another pink sky, signaling change in the weather.
Mankind is just along for the ride when it comes to Mother Nature! :)
Right now Winter and Spring are fighting over who gets to be with us! :)
I have to say, I'm enjoying Nature's amazing tug-of-war! :) Hope you are too! :)
