The Coming Melt

I stuck a yardstick in the snow this morning in the back yard.  Two feet of snow on the ground.  Some places it is more.  I tried to dig down to some snowdrops to see if anything was happening with them, but I hit a layer of ice at ground level.  Finally, tomorrow temperatures are going up so we will see how quickly all this snow will melt and when I will have snowdrops.  We should have some great puddles and run-off streams.
