I'm posting this to remind myself of what spring is supposed to look like - I'm looking at fluffy white flakes drifting by my window! Although not born in the Chicago area, I've lived here for 54 years and this is the coldest and latest spring I can ever remember - by mid April our forsythia should have bloomed, the flowering crabtrees should be starting to bloom along with the magnolias and there should be daffodils. There is none of this.
