Today I had a true and real whiff of Spring.
As I type this it's -7° and we're awaiting 1.5 feet of snow. 18-24
hour storm, windgusts of over 35 MPH, Blizzard conditions. Spring
seems so far off! :::sigh::: I'm a snow lover, but I love Spring even
more!
I know just how you feel!

I know you do, Cheryl, and now they've upped the anti to over 2 feet
for all of us within 495. And I'm not going to be able to take
advantage of it with my cross country skis cuz I have to get ready for
a trip to Denver on Monday (work trip, not pleasure). I can imagine
what'll be going on at Logan. Oh well!
As I type this the juncos have flown in outside and are trying to
stock up. I've got to go out, fill the feeders, put up more suet and
give my little feathered friends an assist for the storm. I can't
imagine how they make it out there, it's so cold. But that's life.
Thankfully while it's so frigid out we've got a good blanket of snow
(and more to come!) to keep the gardens tucked in. Although right
before this we were flirting with 60. I don't think we're going to
have much heaving this winter, though.
