A touch of warmth


Although you may not believe it, but there is a brief January thaw happening here. The multiple layers of snow is actually melting, uncovering the ground that we have not seen in weeks.


It will be a while before we see any signs of life again, however. It won't be until August that these pretty sunchokes will bloom. I hope to see crocuses and daffodils poking from the ground in April, or maybe late March, if we are lucky. The lilacs should bloom by the end of May and the rest will follow. I will continue to day dream for now.
