Say It Isn't . . .

SNOW ❄️☃️🌨

But it was earlier this morning as seen in these scenes taken from our apt window. Thankfully, this was a very brief snow event and by 8 a.m. it was quickly melting away.
Yet, the snow event didn't deter this sculler who we've seen on the Nashua River several mornings a week in recent weeks.
Today, there was a noticeable difference in that he was wearing a face mask — true social distancing.
As stated above this was a short-lived wintry scene. Here's the view an hour after the first photos were taken. 
Spring 🌸🥀 we hope it gets here soon 🌺🌼

I wonder how he breathes while rowing with a mask on, I find it hard to breathe just sitting and driving or walking. beautiful snow view, we are praying the rain that is just north of us will visit up, but it looks like its a no

Several of my friends have experienced snow in the past few days. Fortunately, like you, it didn't last. The view from your window is so pretty. I wish I had a river to look at while staying inside. Not much to look at here. I wouldn't think he would need to wear a mask while rowing on the river though.

I agree, that's such a pretty view you have, even with the snow. Thankfully, the snow all melted quickly. You stay safe and have a wonderful day, hugs, Edna B.

That's a pretty snow view, and I'm so glad that it was gone an hour later. That's the best! Looks lovely there.

It was like that a week ago in UK. I cursed when I saw it but cheered when it disappeared and a nice sunny day arrived.

The snow gives it whole different look, shame we had none here

Great photos - it's funny to see the guy wearing a mask on the water.
Spring seems to have vanished. It was 27 degrees here in Tennessee last night. I'm using my electric blanket again.

We had more spring-like weather a month ago than we have had so far in April!
Had a few flurries this morning. Spring has to come and stay at some point ;-)
Please take care and stay well!

Spring is very late in the west.

I'm delighted to say we didn't have any snow in the UK during winter. Just wind and constant rain!

I wore my mask out cutting the lawn, so many people walking by I didn't want to risk it!

I like seeing the mask but I met he is breathing from the bottom of it. When I use my sander on wood I wear a shop mask and I can hardly breath through that. Interesting shots.

Snow! I would not be a happy Bunny if it snowed now. The view from your apartment is great.I have spotted a couple of kayakers on the canal near me, not usually a popular place for water sports but I guess it is close to home.

I'm with you. Let's hope no more snow and spring arrives soon! Hugs-Erika

The best thing about snow in the springtime is that it usually doesn't stick around too long. Your pictures are lovely.
