Spring is Just About Here

More signs of spring:

  • The Robins are back!!!
  • The Maple Syrup Festival is going on at Fenner Nature Center.
  • The willows are greening!
  • Bulbs are starting to emerge.
  • Some people have Crocus.
  • The Pussy Willows are out!
  • The Cedar Waxwing are making their stops on their way north!

Sorry for the absence. There were several family-health issues going on. Everything seems calm and going positive now. Missed you!

Mom had to go to emergency this weekend, but the diagnosis is an upper respiratory infection, and she cleared a bunch of heart tests, so this is good. Thanks!

Phew, glad to hear that.

there are times where i love to be in a country where there are four seasons. then i just have to come across news that says usa got assault by mild blizzard and some obscure country which i did not quite manage to catch the name got assaulted by sandstorm.

anyway, glad your mom is alright. my dad is still in hospital for mild stroke...they are keeping him back because his actions are not as used to be.

anyway, see ya around!

Thanks, Julie, Kathryn and Tien!

I love 4-season country, Tien. I'm not sure if I would quite know what to do without our distinct weather. Hope your dad is doing better.
