Spring Was On its Way

Author: siggy

Spring was on its way.  I checked the bed of daffodils that come up every year and there were nubs coming up.  I never checked them so early during winter.  It was the last day of January.  Last time I looked the primrose were still blooming.  They like the cold.  We have had temperatures as low as 3 degrees in the morning so maybe the primrose finally died.  I am going to look.  Nevertheless, spring was still a bit off.  We have had snow but only minor storms.  It is still a bit to go.  The worst is not over.  Groundhog day is coming, though.

Winter Is On Its Way Out

Winter is on its way out.  Groundhog day was one week, one day ago.  It is now less than five weeks to winter’s demise officially.  I have started my countdown to spring.  The weather does not always cooperate but now I can see the end of the tunnel.  Spring is coming.  I will keep that thought in mind even when the frigid weather returns.  Not that there has been much of that.  There wasn’t.  Maybe we will still get a big snowstorm.  It does not matter.  Spring is on its way.  I will keep that in mind.  Winter is on its way out.
