Were getting pretty close to full leaf out now in this part of the valley. We are always ahead of most areas here , but it has slowed here the past couple weeks During my travels this spring, leaf out was the quickest right down in Southwest Connecticut and then in the Connecticut River Valley. The Hills always look like they're a week or two behind. I was up in Maine last week and our family cabin 22 miles NW of AUG looked like it was about 3 weeks behind. Driving home through the mountains last Wednesday , looked like it was about 6 weeks behind in Phin's area , mainly brown with tiny buds and the snow covered tops of the Presidentials in the backdrop.
