How many days left to exercise patience until the Spring arrives?
According to some reading I did on the Net, we have 55 days left.
During those 55 days, I promise to be patient and just wait that Mother Nature does her work to prepare this season and make a wonderful one out of it.
It won't be easy but thankfully there is plenty of beautiful gardens and flowers and landscaping to check on this wonderful Internet system.

Love your picture! Yes, spring is not too far away but we can have a lot of winter weather in February and March. Yet, hope springs eternal!

At least you get a period of time where you actually have a spring season. Florida gets like one week, and then we skip right ahead to summer! Haha

@marlina Spring would be my favorite season of the year too, if we didn't have so much pollen to contend with. There's so much pollen that it looks like yellow snow all over the ground and on the cars and houses. That's how thick it is! And then as soon as the pollen season is over, along comes all the love bugs. If you've never experienced love bugs, then consider yourself lucky. The swarms of those insects flying all over the place are probably worse than all 10 of the Egyptian plagues in the Bible.

WEll, that's not too bad- 55 days- I can stand it- I hope! Yes and am looking forward to buying flowers again after a very dreary Winter- fog and rain and lots of grey!

How many until Summer? 
I like spring too though. I just want this cold wiped out already.

I'm a little concerned about spring coming now. The area where I live has several spots where the snow has caused buildings to collapse. There is the fear of flooding too. It should be an interesting spring.

March 20, 2017 will be the perfect day to have a celebration. Think we will start planning one now.

Ah, 55 days until my oldest grandson's birthday. That's great! Thanks for telling me. Now for 55 days of winter that still hasn't really shown up yet, but waiting on snowflakes to start anytime now. They are in the forecast unless they pass us by. Checking out the streetlight - I think it's snowing
