Spring green-up in one long post. Two posts March is all brown once the snow melts. A few pics from the 26th. You can a slight hint of green in the moss, but that's it. Not much to look at this time of year.  Mid-April, the grass turned green again. No leaves yet. Ice and snow is a distant memory... 16th  Back to snow for a day. 18th  On the 23rd, a warm day brought a crowd to the beach. It reached 80 inland but only the high 50's by the water. Still had a few hundred people hanging out in swimsuits.  A quiet, rocky spot. Not far from the crowds.  24th. The warm weather brought buds and flowers (not pictured) to the city streets. Still bare outside the UHI.  |

May is when things started to pick up. On cool sunny day, seeing more growth. (4th)  A few buds by the river. No leaves yet.  Art.  The grass is green, but the trees are bare in the great swamps of Milwaukee.  Flowering trees are a welcome sight before the bigger trees wake up. 7th.  Outside the UHI things are different. No leaves, barely even buds. Taken on the 8th of May. 
I was out of town for a week and came back on the 13th.
Everything changed. It was hot, mid-80s, and everything was green!  GREEN  Outside the UHI...also GREEN. This was taken on the 14th. It's further south than the place I was on the 8th, but still...a huge change.  One spot that wasn't green. Could be the sandy soil, but there's a lot of dead brush for some reason.  Last set for the spring is the 28th. Fully leafed out by now.  |
