    So lovely . . . it makes me drool. I was all set for Spring. Planning the garden,buying the dahlia bulbs, ordering the baby chicks, waiting for the seed potatoes to arrive at the feed ‘n seed and then . . . IT SNOWED!

    So sad. I have been consoling myself with picture of Clematis and now your lovely blossom. Thanks for brightening my snowy day.

    I love spring. Not only does it bring new life, but it also gets rid of the germs my kids have been getting this winter. ;-)

    My flowers and trees are starting to bloom already and I’m afraid it’s a tad bit early . . . we’ll probably have another hard frost or two to kill them off. :( But it’s still nice to see them.
