Yes, it is Spring

[hrj]

Sorry to all of you who are still mired in winter snows, but I have daffodils and crocuses and tulips and roses. I have blooms on my plums, quinces, cherries, and medlars. The strawberries and raspberries and blueberries are flowering. The tomatoes and eggplants are thriving. I'm harvesting fresh herbs. And there is a mourning dove nesting on the gardening shelves under the patio. Yeah, we have a major serious drought. But pthbbth! We have Spring!

That sounds lovely. We have had an early spring with most snow gone by mid-March, but the last few days gave us another decimetre or so. It's melting now, though. Fast.

We are putting a tentative foot into spring. here in NYC. No flowers yet, but the ground is soft and muddy, it smells different too.

Wherever you are sounds splendid. Hard to believe it will ever be tomato time here!

I believe it is now my moral obligation to inform you that You Suck, until spring actually makes its way to the FedroSplat for realz. (Forecast for Peak Cherry Blossoms has already been pushed back once by at least a week. We'll see what this coming week brings.)
