A touch of spring

Even though it is officially winter today

it feels a lot like spring. 

It's 66 degrees out at the moment,

and is projected to reach 69 later today and break a record. 

While this hasn't been a particularly bad winter,

and in fact none have seemed that bad to me after the record breakers of the mid-90's, 

it's still nice to have a time out from the cold occasionally.  

And of course I celebrated by doing a bit of gardening yesterday. 

So, it seemed appropriate to post some spring photos today. 

Here are some favorites from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. 

Enjoy!
