Spring has sprunged

^^^^ omg so far ahead of us. I have not even seen any crocus or squill popping up in the lawns.
We went for a nice long walk to our favourite pub and back - and the amount of flowers out was surprising. But these were just amazing. 🙂
 
Spring has arrived in the forest and the blue bells are out in force

My 1860s place came with so much air conditioning we demolished the plaster and lath in favor of sheetrock (and INSULATION).
It’s sad to see the plaster go in those old homes while acknowledging it’s hard to avoid for one reason or another. Several decades ago, we looked at a Victorian home where most of the plaster was ready to come down by it’s own accord and I’ll assume the only place where plaster might be reconsidered would be restoration of a historical property And a budget to do so.
 
Spring is gone, it’s baking time at least where I come from.. I just spent 2 weeks in Minnesota, where it does get hot, but the last 2 weeks, highs were in the 70’s(F), sometimes low 70s. As close to heavenly as I can think of. The barrier is thin, driving south though Iowa and Kansas we were in the 80s, Oklahoma Texas, up to 99 yesterday near the end of the drive. It’s oppressive when you’ve been teased with a Minnesota Spring. I almost forgot, it’s not summer yet, god help us. 😵
