sunshine in my soul today!

I hear birds singing and the sun is shining!

We're on our way from a record February snowfall
of 49.2 inches...

to this,

and this!


That cold March wind can't fool me. Even with the constant, chilly breeze, I can close my eyes and imagine the promise of spring tulips, summer hollyhocks, the scent of newly plowed fields and of freshly mown grass. And like a wide-eyed kid staring at the sweet treats in a candy store, I look at my favorite gardening books over and over, flagging  pages that inspire me. Yes, before we know it...it will be barefoot season!

  1. What a beautiful garden!

    My winter has been disappointing...snow wise, I'm tired of wishing for me snow.

    Bring on the sunshine!

  3. How come my garden never looks like that??? You must have an-ever-so-green thumb, my friend! Lovely!
    I found our first crocus peeping up today -- or what was left of it after Mr. Wabbit and his pals had breakfast. I imagine they were gladder than I to see it.

  4. What beautiful photos! I know. Spring (or even the promise of her) brings me such happiness and renewed zest for living!
