colder

Temps were around 20 degrees (F) this morning, and the ground felt a little crunchy went Franklin and I went outside. It's been quite windy and this morning there were solitary snow flakes drifting through the air at moments when the sky was mostly blue and then gray.

Back to sweaters and a bigger coat.

Supposedly it warm up a bit more later next week.

Still no sign of life emerging from bulbs planted in late fall -- the timing the first year of new bulbs could be set by the same folk who made that Disney movie where the dogs are on a long trip and the old one, who is voice of Don Ameche, looks like he is not coming over the hill. Exquisitely timed to make a dog lover cry, one beat past any expectation that the old dog is still alive the old dog comes over the hill returning home.

At some point in the next few weeks, they will sprout through the dirt.
