YES!!! I'm so happy! The daylight lasts so much longer lately, and the snow is all gone, and my replacement seeds for cool weather crops just arrived today... I'm hoping - HOPING - to get my carrots, beets, turnips, spinach, and more planted this weekend! I may even throw a few seeds of broccoli in the garden, just to see what happens! I'm so excited - during the last snowstorm, I kept saying I could smell the warm, sweet air of spring, and that it was coming. Looking outside, it seemed an impossibility. I was the only one who had faith and believed. But I was right - I know my trusty old nose! She has never failed me yet! :)
So, Marly, what are you going to do to celebrate?

I'm been hurrying spring along by decorating my front porch a little each day for over a week. Finished today ~ can't wait for hanging baskets to hit the vegetable stand.

Nini: to celebrate, I will mow my yard! Doesn't need it, but I need to get on that mower and mow!! LOL Your garden sounds cool!
CJ: The green is coming in in the Texas Hill Country, also. I am anxiously awaiting the wild flowers.

it may be snowing now, but we have one of those wonderful indoor "watch'em grow" a pot filled with dafodils, tulips, hyacynths, and grape hyacynths. Wonderful smells, even if I can't spell.
