I don't see how spring can have arrived here in Winnipeg since we haven't
had winter yet.

Spring is here, also.............. well, for this week anyway!
Temps in the 60s.
Narcissus are golden trumpets.
Almond orchards are bursting into bloom.
And today I saw the first butterfly.
I thought it was a dead leaf in the wind, but it was a Mourning Cloak!
The mornings are still frosty, though

It is way too early for spring (although it does feel like it in NYC)
As a winter sports addict I am hopeful for the return of winter ;
