What's blooming in my yard today? Winter honeysuckle, snowdrops, snow crocus, daffodils (both King Alfred and February Gold), regular crocus, alyssum, anemones, dandelions, those little purple weeds whose name I can never remember, and those little white weeds that I think are called don't-touch-me because they shoot their seeds out in a really satisfying yet irritating way when you do, some weeks from now.

My sympathies to everyone under several feet of snow in the east. It's not far in the back of my mind that we may have a drought this summer because we're not building up snowpack in the mountains now, but I'll enjoy this spring while it happens.

Sounds lovely indeed. Sigh.

Well, with our winter we don't have to worry about drought, so I'll try to keep a lid on my whining. Also, it's good for killing breeding mosquitoes.

Still, flowers . . . .

Love, C.

I know you're teasing me, which is cool. :)

What climate change isn't affecting, the frackers are determined to toxify though. The frackers have been fighting to get hold of our region's watershed for years -- despite the proof of what it's doing to my birth state's water table, and despite the proof that oil is Going Out, at least as fuel.

Love, C.
