    Spring is gradually coming to Massachusetts. Very gradually. You have to look in the leaf litter for signs of it! All except for the last photo

    You are a clever lady, mizz C.

    Also, a very nice collection of spring growth. It won't be long now.

    Don't you just love seeing everything reappear each year? It is about the same here, we are having a very late spring. It has been so cold, and plants are coming out of dormancy quite slow.
    BTW, it is SNOWING here this a.m. Grrr
