Great sign on Spring Don.
Not had to use mine yet but it won't be long.

I remember when we lived in Manitoba and in Northern BC, this was the sure sign of spring. People were so anxious for it they would start to shovel snow from their lawns on to the road to hasten the process!

In western Scotland you don't need a hose! God letter 'O' for an alphabet gallery.

Excellent contrast in colours

LOL... but you have to connect it to the faucet and then manually spray your garden/lawn with the other end ;-). But it makes a mighty pretty photo, and I like the texture of the brick offset by the rubber hose. Nice job. Now get to work ;{

Might be out but I don't see it hooked up yet!! Have a great weekend.

A funny sign of spring.

Never thought about that before - here in the south the hose stays out all year, except when a hurricane is coming. Glad spring is arriving for you!

What a coincidence; mine came out today too. Must be Spring for sure.

LOL, yup, mine will be out tomorrow, to wash the car.
