LOL. My father used to write letters to us about this sort of thing. "Hi, I moved my lawn today" in January. I think he was getting some real perverse enjoyment, which was pretty out of character for him. But we smiled, too.

YAY!
It is 55 or 60 outside in the sun right now. Just a beautiful day and this Friday (which I have off of work coincidentally) will be 60F and sun! It almost, but not quite makes up for March and April being miserable while the rest of the country reawakens.

You could live in New England buried under 20 feet of snow. Bless your rain gods.

This time of year you can see daffodil and jonquil shoots. Sometimes early crocuses. Then there are the odd buds that poke their noses up here and there. But spring still has a way to come.

To me, the true sign that spring is here is when you see Skunk Cabbage growing in the roadside ditches.
