Right on cue, after a chilly
start to the day, the sun put in a glorious appearance on this first day of
Spring. Sweeping leaves and trimming an unruly hedge even resulted in me
working up a sweat, so layers were gradually discarded to finish the job. With the mountain as our backdrop we
are often fooled into believing the wonderful burst of Spring weather at the start of the
season is going to continue, as we have a habit of
relapsing back into Winter on any given day at a moment’s notice. That may very
well happen, but while the sun shines we’ll revel in it and look forward to
more days spent outside pottering around and getting our hands dirty, and
watching out for the new signs of life as the ground warms up and new growth
signals the end of the dormant season.
Daffodils
loud golden trumpets
herald Spring’s arrival
