Minnesota’s summer 2012 starting in March

Warm temperatures and sunshine last weekend brought green grass and budding or blossoming trees.

Spring has come to Minnesota with unprecedented warmth and color. It looks as if this month will be the warmest March on record in the Twin Cities.

Warm temperatures and sunshine last weekend brought green grass and budding or blossoming trees. I took my camera to several locations around Minneapolis and to Keller Golf Course in St. Paul.
