Maine/My house

A sign of spring I saw when I went up in Maine was the sand over powered the snow. So that shows that even if it is colder in Maine that does not change the speed of the melting. Also because the snow has been melting, freezing melting, freezing. Also a sign of spring to me is the sign at my favorite motel in Maine called the Milestones. The sign says see you in the spring. So that to me means that when they put the sign up it is getting closer to opening. Another sign of spring I noticed was today I was walking down the bridge to my house I slipped on some ice. but the ice itself did not make me slip there was water on top of it. Like a puddle. Puddles do remind me of spring. They do because a nice rain fall in April I have tons of puddles around my street. Today it was 38 degrees and the wind was 20mph. So it was not that bad today on weather terms. My last sign of spring is when I was looking at my dads Madel from a race he did the day before the Boston Marathon. I remember how cold it was in April. But when the sun was out very warm. I just can't wait until the warm weather of spring.

My house/Yard

Today what I observed as signs of spring were first when I was walking home I noticed my tree had some buds on it. So did my bush. I also saw how snow in my yard felt damp. It had defiantly melted over the past couple days. Even though it has been really cold. Today it was 32 degrees Fahrenheit. I was so surprised the snow was melting. But the sun was shining head on. Today the wind speed was 15mph. It was not that bad for me. There has been no rainfall today but if it did it would probably have rained with a mix of snow. Also when I got home I could see that my mom had started to fold up the snowman blanket. It is sad to see it go. But I will see the spring blanket out soon. I also saw my Fenway park sign in my basement which always reminds me of spring. Lastly when I went out side to fix my flag I could smell real cold crisp air. But I felt a small warm sensation which told me spring was on its way.

Welcome!!!

Welcome to my signs of spring blog!!! In my science class I have to look for signs of spring around my town. I have to do this for the rest of the school year. So it will be cool to look back at old posts when the school year is over. I hope to keep up with my blog through the whole year of 2010. So I hope you keep coming back!!!
