Winter was mild. Thank you creator. We did not need long and hard this year. So here it is mid April and the snow has gone off, the mud is mostly done and dafs are blooming. Green is all around. For a spell it was unseasonable warm and that made everything try to pop out. That went away. Again thank you. We don't need to race through spring. Birds are returning in number and they are eating suet to beat the bank. What joy.
