I thought that we were going to lose our complete snow cover today, but it's still here! It's thin in places, so we'll probably start seeing bare spots tomorrow.

As the snow melted today, it got shallow enough to see three snowdrops poking up through the white. They haven't opened yet, but they're fully budded out and waiting for a warm, sunny day!
