Well, March 1 is the start of meterological spring, and over the past few day the snow banks have receeded and my yard no longer looks like the set for filming "March Of The Penguins". On an exposed spot of soil I found this slightly bedraggled Galanthus beginning to bloom.

I know a woman who grew up in Orlando, Flordia and went to college at Flordia State in Tallahassee. She never could understand the poets always gushing verses extoling the glory of spring, then she spent a winter in Iowa. Winter is the dues we pay to truly appreciate what is unfolding outside. Enjoy!
