Lenten Roses 2



We had such a warm January and February that spring was running 22 days early.  
I'm not sure where they got that number from.  Its precision makes me curious. 
What did they do?  Ask a Robin Redbreast?
 Any way, it turned out to be wishful thinking. 
We are having a cold March complete with snow. 
I have to admit I am not amused. 
Luckily people planted their Lenten Roses back when it was warm and they have survived. 
Today I saw my first tulip. 
And I got English peas at the market this morning, so it should be spring any day now. 
But in the meantime, I would settle for getting rid of the rest of the ugly gray snow still on the streets.
Here's another blog about Lenten roses ...

Cheers!
