Comparing Spring ~ 2011 to 2013

Comparing 3 years in my new home.  Doesn't seem like it's been that long.  The first spring was what I would call a "normal" spring.  The second, last year, was way too warm for March and this year way too cold.  I'm with Goldilock, I like it just right.

I've taken the pictures on the same day of the year in the same location.  I just like comparing changes and differences. Through these pictures, besides noticing the difference in the season,  I've noticed things have moved and grown or disintegrated.

I could have cheated and taken the pictures a day or 2 early to be more dramatic, because below this is what it looked like the morning of March 25, 2013:

 Then during the day, all of that melted away only to come another snow that night,
 and therefore the picture below shows the morning of March 26, 2013:

That snow also melted away during the day.  So, I played fair and took the pictures on

 March 27, 2013 so I could be exact.  enJOY the comparison pictures below of my backyard.
