Temperature is feeling better this morning than yesterday and peering ahead, if things go according to forecast, we could be seeing a couple of days hovering near 60 degrees. That sounds lovely. Time for me to start examining trees and bushes for buds to start forming. Too early? Of course, but I’m the eternal optimist and I know one of these fine early Spring days, I’ll see some. Won’t likely be in my tiny backyard though as it faces north and the shadow of the building pretty much blocks out any sun rays foolish enough to try to invade the territory. That’s why I’m looking at snow for a lot longer than most when I look out my kitchen window. But…it will go away and before you know it I’ll once again be able to sit out on my little patio with a cup of morning coffee and just be. That’s all I ask. Not much is it? Most years Mother Nature seems to think it is, but maybe not this one.
