Happy Winter, I Mean Spring!

Spring is here! And so is a good 8 inches of snow, with more on the way. I went out to take a few pictures because I could see this crazy snowdrift from the window and wanted to check it out. It doesn't look nearly as dramatic in the pictures as real life.



It is reassuring to know this snow won't last forever like all the others. So if I skip shoveling the drive, it won't still be there in three weeks!

Seasonal Weather Irony

Spring is Coming

After 18 months of winter, I do believe spring is actually coming. While I do enjoy snow, I also really enjoy spring and am glad it is coming. You have to pay very close attention to all the trees and see them changing. Here is how I know spring is coming:

• There are baseball scores on my dashboard.
• I was able to walk at lunch for the first time since December.
• There are hurdles out on the track at the park.
• The seasonal nursery by my house is getting set up.
• I saw a bug on my windshield. I don't particularly like bugs, but you don't see them in the winter.
  
• It is light in the morning when I wake up, although not for long.
  
• There are almost no piles of snow left.
• I have daffodils peeking up and one crocus.

I probably have more, but that's it for now.
