Spring?

3 hrs. after I snapped the pillar of ice photo on my cell phone, I glanced over to where it was in the front yard as I was climbing into the car.  I witnessed the pilar of ice falling into the soft melting snow below.   I believe it is indeed a sign of Spring.  Tempertature  is 11c at my weather station on the pole 15 ft. above the ground by my back door.  Beautiful Sunday afternoon.  Praise the Lord!
