What represents Spring in North Dakota to you?

No no no! The sure sign if spring is crocuses popping out on the hilltops! That..and I agree with the baby calves.
Hey..speaking of tshirts..where can I get one from all the way in NM!?

Spring is when everything starts to turn green, the brown dormant grass starts to come alive, plants popping bright green sprigs of new life out of the earth that was frozen for months and months. Buds on the trees all around you soon to fill the baron trees of winter with bold and beautiful leaves of spring. Spring is a transition of black and white to color. I noticed the birds chirping every morning which you do not hear in the dead of winter. And yes I do believe the crocus is the first flower to pop it's colorful blooms for us to enjoy, they actually will bloom up through light snow, now that says spring!

Under the dirty dead leaves of autumn past you will find life a new beginning.

Spring is a sign of life that we nearly forget exists when we live in this frozen north land of ice and snow and cold.

Spring is when we stop thinking about moving to Florida and start enjoying the life around us for another brief but wonderful summer.

Great for yourself or a gift if you know someone from any of those towns!

Something that makes me enjoy spring is chirping birds in the morning!

For me, it is the first time you smell dirt each spring.
