Spring fever, who else is feeling it today?

[Longgrain]

There's nothing like getting out of work early on one of the first really bright sunny days of the year, to literally seem to see the snow melting around you, naturally smiling for the first time in months, and of course the :loveya: .

Who else here?

[jswordy]

1. Been spring here awhile, and I still feel it.

We had nice storms last night, my grass is just boiling out of the ground, needs cutting again after just 4 days, all is in bloom, trees leafing out...I LOVE IT!

[Longgrain]

5. I saw the first flower buds of the year this morning...

Just little green things for now, but things are starting to grow...now if only it stays this way...

[jswordy]

12. I peeked at your profile...yer about 3-5 weeks away from the start...

of the "intensity phase," I would guess. I am down South in southern TN, and I can assure you it is heading your way!

:D

[redqueen]

2. Oh yeah... I'm feelin' it.

Mowed the lawn *again* last night... allergies going crazy... on the good side my lillies are looking soooo healthy considering I still need to fertilize them. :)

[Longgrain]

It will be a while before any lawns are mowed around here

but at least some of the green is beginning to show, so that's something...

3. Hi Longgrain, I can't wait for spring to come. I'll be able to finish

my seasons panoramas and walk around outside. Yay!!!:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Longgrain]

7. Oh yeah, I can't wait to see that Spring collage...

I'll be checking the Photo Group for it soon I hope...

[tridim]

4. I had that feeling last weekend when it was 65 and sunny

But today it's freezing cold, with snow and 35mph winds. Denver weather is schizophrenic.

I'm sick of winter, bring on Spring!

[Longgrain]

9. It's like that here in New England too, but I hoping we're through

the worst of it.

[LynzM]

6. ME!

Went outside and walked around the building a few times earlier, it's sooooo nice out! Can we get some of this for Saturday, please!?

[Longgrain]

10. I have the weekend off, so I sure hope it stays this way...

Maybe I'll finally get a chance to go out for a road trip and do some photography, maybe even a little outdoor painting. I'm just aching to get out more...

8. I’m as restless as a willow in a windstorm,

I’m as restless as a willow in a windstorm,
I’m as jumpy as a puppet on a string,
I’d say that I had spring fever,
But I know it isn’t spring.

I’m as starry eyed and gravely discontented,
Like a nightingale without a song to sing.
Oh, why should I have spring fever,
When it isn’t even spring?

I keep wishing I were somewhere else,
Walking down a strange new street,
Hearing words I have never never heard,
From a man I’ve yet to meet.

I’m as busy as a spider spinning daydreams,
I’m as giddy as a baby on a swing,
I haven’t seen a crocus or a rosebud,
Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing,
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way,
That it might as well be spring,
It might as well be, might as well be,
It might as well be spring.

[Longgrain]

14. Great poem...er song, What's the title.

I've never heard it before...

[trof]

30. "It might as well be spring" I think.

[StopTheMorans]

[Longgrain]

13. Oops too late...

16. damn it!

[intheflow]

15. I heard you were getting a break

from your relentless winter. Hurrah for spring! :woohoo:

Here in Denver, we just got a couple inches of snow after a week of nice weather. They say it'll be up in the 60's again tomorrow, but today I'm laying low and avoiding the chilly, chilly, chilly arctic air lurking outside my door. Brrr!!!

:hi:

[Longgrain]

17. Thank for the well wishes...maybe now I can finally get down to

Holyoke, and complete my updated Abandoned Amusement Park series...

:hi:

[Freebird12004]

18. It's a wonderful feeling !

I'm looking at buds on trees that I planted 9 years ago and last years new additions, the Iris are showing signs of life.
Yes, Spring in my favorite time of the year!:applause:

[Longgrain]

20. It's starting to get there here, still don't see to many tree buds yet

But it feels like we could see some shortly...

[Freebird12004]

22. Yea !

Then my drive to Boston a few weeks from now will be a beautiful one!

[Longgrain]

23. I hope so, I hope we have good weather for the DU meet up

in April, the weather was great when we met up a few weeks ago...

[Freebird12004]

29. Earth Day is the day before the Boston DU meet up...

... so the weather will be great for a trip to Fanuil Hall. Perhaps a stop at Durgan Park is in order too :woohoo: :beer: :woohoo:

[SarahB]

19. Yes, yes, yes!

I've had an excellent morning and hopefully everything will work out, but I don't yet want to jinx myself yet, so mum's the word.

I want to do a happy dance though because I'm so excited though. :bounce:

[Longgrain]

21. Here I'll dance with ya...since I'm feeling the same way...

:bounce: :bounce:

[fudge stripe cookays]

24. Me!!!

Nothing like enjoying the balmy spring weather with the sunroof open, blasting "Black Metallic" by Catherine Wheel.

Ahhhhhhh.....Now if only it was Friday!

25. I just back from cruising around with the windows rolled down...

And I'll probably go out again shortly...great day for it!

[Huckebein the Raven]

26. 74 degrees here. Nice and sunny

[Longgrain]

27. 65 here in New England, second sunny day in a row...

I just better be careful about gloating too much...the weather this time of year is unpredictible...

[Huckebein the Raven]

28. I know. We had T-storms last night
