OK, enough is enough. This was about 2 weeks ago. We didn't get as much snow as other times so it was cleared sooner and we weren't trapped for too long. 
You can see the snow wasn't as high on the birdbath as in the past.
Now, here are some signs of Spring.
Notice the sun is rising further to the East. It used to come up between the gap in the trees and it's moving over.
Now it's not even in the gapl
Crocus is blooming!
Witchhazel is blooming. I normally don't leave tags on the shrubs like Minnie Pearl plants. However, those who know Robert (aka Dogwood Dick) know I have to do this so he won't chop them down.
