Soon it will be spring :)
the first couple of paragraphs were written a week ago, the blizzard past, the 37 Inches of snow is slowly melting away, but will take a while, but most of the roads are now cleared and passable, and hopefully after another cool day today we may see a warming trend
The blizzard outside is doing the absolute most, but mentally I’m already sipping a cool drink, complaining about pollen, and pretending I like walking or jogging in mild weather. Snowflakes may be falling, but my thoughts are blooming — because somewhere beneath this frosty tantrum, spring is patiently waiting for its grand entrance.
I am preparing this post during the blizzard, and will share in about a week, so that may explain the first paragraph which were thoughts that came to me this morning, looking outside the front window and realizing I can't see the road, let alone houses across the street
So yes I am thinking of spring and sharing a few shots of a visit to Buttonwood Park at the start of spring last year
One of the first signs of spring each year is when the daffodils bloom, they always make me think of my Dad who was a great gardener, both for flowers and vegetables, but Daffodils were one thing I remember in his flower gardens.
I would like to think I got some good traits and habits from him :), but gardening is something I did not inherit from him, I have no luck with gardening
