Spring Was Waiting

Just as I'd hoped, spring was evident in the forsythia...


and daffodils that graced our return to Paradise.


Inside the cold frame, lettuce and spinach we planted late last fall were thriving and ready for harvest.


How did these plants survive the bitterly cold winter? I suppose they kept warm beneath a heavy blanket of snow, in spite of night temperatures as low as -15 F.

I'm so happy to be home again.

You look so strong leaning over your cold frame chock-FULL of green stuff!

I want to make a rock path around your cold frame with seashells!

Love you!

Glad to see your blog is updated. That must mean your Mac is FIXED!?

Do we have enough seashells? Wish I had carried more home.

The Mac is fixed, I hope, but I don't trust it.

Love you,
Mama
