Photos: Mother Nature has a sense of humor

Happy April Fool’s Day, everyone. Mother Nature proved she’s not above a good laugh every now and again, as those of us in Southborough woke up to several inches of wet, heavy snow. My careful scientific analysis (i.e., a ruler stuck in the snow) suggests we got five or six inches of the white stuff.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t bear to drag my shovel out one more time this season. I’m just going to wait until it melts.

I did manage to get out there with my camera, though. Have a look (click an image to enlarge).

Stunning susan. She has a sense of humor and great design sense. I can’t hate it no matter how much we have had or how late it is in the season. I’m also sure I lost quite a few blooms too. Oh well!

I heard we were getting snow and I ran outside to cover my blooms with tarps. I planted so many bulbs last year, I had to try to save them. I think it worked – they still got a little smushed from the weight of the snow but I’m hoping they’ll recover!

I too, retired my shovel. And I will not wear a winter coat again, no matter how many layers I have to wear under my pretty spring trench!
