Jack Frost courts the May Queen

Awoke to a really cool treat from Ma Nature this morning - pun intended. We got a good frost overnight, the closest we have come to snow in a while. But the sun was up and warm, leaving green grass everywhere the sun touched and frost in the shaded areas.

There was even a frost outline of the trees in their own shadows, while grass all around them was green. Check the shade line immediately left of the ash tree in the first picture below - all white!

To top it all off, the Willow was Weeping - as the frost fled before the sun, Environment Canada reported VERY localized rain showers underneath our tree.
