Hang in there, it will come soon. February is the cruelest month, I think. Here, the weather is being very indecisive. Yesterday it snowed like crazy in the morning (while the birds sang) and today it's all melted away. Stay warm, mi amigo!

Soon enough, soon enough (I know, it's NOT soon enough) — but remember how lucky you are! ;-)

where are you mb? we are about to have the coldest temps in 12 years - after all the lovely spring weather with budding trees and bulbs coming up and perennials showing green crowns!

now we must stake our more tender perennials and shrubs and cover them with blankets! we may have to add mulch to the huecheras. i worry about the dahlias whose tubers we don't normally need to dig to protect.

we have our hands busy before nightfall!

Sky, good luck! It's always worrisome when those little green sprigs show up before they should. I hope you are able to save what you have. I'm here at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, where the sagebrush sea (desert) bumps up against the foothills of the mountains... in Idaho. It's colder here than in Washington, no green things pushing up, but I did get some robins!

Ce sont des rouges gorges ?
Ils sont spendides sur ce fond bleu .
Merci pour votre commentaire !
Moi aussi , comme vous , j'ai envie de toucher ce mur , ses rugosités , me pénétrer des nuances colorées de ses pierres .
Merci d'avoir si bien ressenti ce que j'avais si envie de partager .

Oui, ce sont des rouges gorges, symboles du printemps qui vient! Sur le bleu, leur rouge danse, n'est-ce pas? Vous faites des choses exceptionnels avec votre photos, Jean. Je ne peux qu'en aspirer! :-)

Frankie, I know I'm ready for it, and it sounds like you are too!

Mary... lucky you! We're not quite there, too cold still. But I don't think it will be too long.
