Adele and I walked out the front door this morning and were greeted by blooming crocus. White and yellow in bloom and large flower buds on the purple. In the back yard there are buds on the daffodils and green popping up all over the place.
Life may not be the party we hoped for but while we're
here we should dance.

In heaven there is no beer
That's why we're drinking it here
And when we're gone from here
All our friends will be drinking all our beer.

Let the Gemutlichkeit roll on. Ein Prosit.

Life is too short to drink cheap beer.

Our spring sprung early here, I think TOO early. The crocuses bloomed long ago, as well as the daffodils. I think the flowers are gone now from the crocuses and are getting wilted on the daffodils.

We've had many trees in bloom, still do but the weather is turning cold again so I don't know how that will affect them.

I think your springtime is coming at a more logical time and I am happy for the beauty that is sprouting all around you.

All our crocuses are done, daffodils drooping and many of the trees downtown are dropping their pretty pink blossoms. My flowering plum is still in full bloom but a good wind would take care of that pretty quickly. I loved the Spring weather. But now we've had colder weather, light snow and fluffy hail. Today was cold, very wet and windy. There's "rain" and then there's "sloppy." Today was sloppy. Just don't want to go out there.

If it looks like a duck and it walks like a duck and it sounds like a duck... it's a duck!
