I was determined to start walking to work again, and bundled up and made the trip downtown to the office, about a mile and a half each way, twice. I remember noticing the temperature on the bank that's across the street from that capitol: 28 degrees on the first day of spring. It was a very bleak.
But tonight, in the garden, I saw this and finally felt I'd seen a real sign of Spring.
It's simply amazing how giddy-happy these little buds made me feel. I came inside and prepared a feast of pasta primavera, opened a bottle of chardonay and started looking forward to gardening, meals on the deck and naps in the hammock.

But the best of all: Daylight Saving Time--this weekend!
I'd completely forgetten about daylight savings time coming ... thanks for the reminder.
Yeah, spring! Bring it on! I saw some orange California poppies on the roadside last week, that's a sure sign of impending spring on the west coast.
I miss those poppies ... and the wildflowers in the mountains in spring.
