While the snow on the ground now fell Christmas and the days after, it has been melting the last couple of days, but is not totally gone. Now the next storm is on its way. The weather people say a lot of snow. They tend to over estimate the snow fall. None the less, Winter seems to reaching full steam. Thanks for the pretty flowers to rekindle our dreams. annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668006270534204954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8507050173444646286.post-16854360105425320662016-01-27T18:13:25.918-05:002016-01-27T18:13:25.918-05:00Beautiful post, Robin ...

We'll have to do that as soon as we can in the spring, so we can plant those cool season crops.

I don't think we've gotten over an inch at any given time. If it's going to be cold, it may as well be snowy and cover up the gray!

The warm before a new storm. My new seed catalogs are still unopened. I'll get them soon. I did buy fresh daffodils at the super market the other day, knowing that the ones in the garden are hopeful gearing up for a wonderful show in a few months. Lovely photos here, reminders of what is on it way. Stay warm.annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668006270534204954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8507050173444646286.post-62889662856387960042016-01-13T17:13:57.857-05:002016-01-13T17:13:57.857-05:00Robin, I felt like I was dreaming as I wandered th...Robin, I felt like I was dreaming as I wandered through your garden.
