Yesterday, one lone all yellow daffodil danced lazily on the soft summer breeze. Yes, it was so warm and amazing I was sure summer had come. Sugar, Drew and I started to take a walk, but the rain chased us off after a mere ten minutes.
Today, the whole perimeter of the building is laced with clumps of daffodils that have a deep orange center surrounded by a white lace bib. Tulip greens are shooting up and the bird song is tremendous.
I watched with intrepidation as the road crews took down all the (totally unnecessary) snow fences from along Elmgrove Road. I am almost afraid they will regret this move. That's just the kind of action to force us into a blizzard of frozen whiteness!
Everyone is talking about the jet stream being so out of joint that we are getting sun and warm while California is getting cold and snow. How unusual. For now, I will enjoy the beautiful flowers and birds and bask in the warmth of the sun. But I refuse to take off the snow tires until May.
