SPRING IS HERE..


Hello Everyone....

Spring is here and I live close to the sea...

We don't get snow here in Napier..too hot, but on this day last week we got thunder,lightening, hail and the temp dropped 10oC in minutes...


Just sayin'...


This is not sand..it is hail stones..


Lightening show was spectacular..constantly.


I think this is a snowman..I could be wrong..my Grandson made it with the hail..


Orchards suffered...


My new landscaping venture came to a halt...


Killed my plants


and stopped traffic up my road.. and one broken wind sceen..

And that is all she wrote..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Oh my word, we had the heaviest rain I have ever seen in England on Sunday, it was like tropical rain. Luckily we are high up but some people got flooded. Never seen a hailman before.

WOW we are pretty used to weather like this unfortunately -I remember one Spring we bought a beautiful plant-planted it and half hour later it hailed and completely shredded it!!!

Hail is so pretty and these are gorgeous pictures. It's also very destructive! We have it a lot here where I live and just cringe when it hits.
Love the hail snowman! LOL!

Looks more like winter than spring. Although, spring in Norway is when everything can happen weather wise. A snowman wasn’t the first word that came to mind, lol.

Isn't it really scary Chrissy how the world is changing. Mother Nature is the boss whether we like it or not. Love the photos and yes that's definitely a snowman even if he is naked. Too hot for clothes lol.

Jeepers! That's extraordinary. Very sad about the orchards and plants, but the hailman (like the mailman but not!) tickled me.

Such wonderful photos here my friend! It's interesting to see that Spring is on the way over in your area where it's starting to get chilly and into the Fall season in my area! :) Love that melted snowman!
