We Will Wait Some More

The little Crocus sieberi atticus 'Firefly' says spring is near on a sunny day that appeared amidst the gloom.  But you can't let a single early crocus lead you astray.





















The world outside is still in the grip of the barren time.





















Rain is scheduled to return tomorrow night, snow by mid week and cold cold by the weekend. Winter is not done. Spring is not here.

Anxious we are but must wait. Cold got the tops of potatoes so must dig. Did get some small ones, good with green beans. Have more to plant.
Love that little crocus. Yes, I'm sure more to come.

Dianne. Do not move to a higher elevation. This has been a mild winter as far as I'm concerned.

Lola I think I'll still be able to find enough to keep me busy til spring. I'm still three weeks from my early vegetable planting. Maybe longer if the weathers stay cold cold.
