Open Thread -- It's Spring!

Greetings and howdy-do, gang. I've been out of town for a week, and away from the 'Net since Saturday morning, and I have to sort through the e-mail. But spring is springin' up all over the darn place. Out here in Ay-Squared, all the trees are budding nicely, some have got half-formed leaves, the lilacs are mostly out, and the next few days of rain should make the whole place just gorgeous by next Tuesday. How is it where you are?
