And Away We Go...

In the sunny, protected alcove of a neighbor's garden in the village, the first "daffies" of the season are already putting up fragile green leaves. We (Beau and I) were surprised to see them on a morning walk a day or two ago.

In our own garden, there are no signs of daffodils, tulips, snowdrops, crocus, bloodroot, or any other spring bloomers for that matter. Is this a hopeful sign or what?

What!!! I thought you lived "north" -- that amount of green growth must be more south. To me.
One time I mentioned some big difference in the weather in the north compared to where I live, and a friend in Europe somewhere said "Kate; you do know you live in the north, right?"

I too saw a few green shoots yesterday in a small puddle of sunshine and another's yard.
Not a single one for me, however although things are busy underground.
