We've had a long, hard winter. Due to be in the teens and 20's again this
weekend....but I saw some green!!!

Pittsburgh, Zone 6


Now you made me go out and look.

Sure enough, daffodils are up, and tulips are popping out all over.

I put up some baby pictures, for anyone on Facebook:

I'd have sworn it was too early, but it's really only about one week ahead
of last year, according to my photo archives. It's a shame - yesterday was
60 degrees, it's 32 as I type this, with a mix of snow/sleet/rain in the
near forecast. Still, nice to know that Spring will once again happen this
year.

No matter what anyone says, February is the longest month of the year.
