But at least there are signs that spring (dare I say it?) is on the way. The spring flowers - yellow, blue and white - are out, some of the camellias have blossomed and there are buds on many of the trees. And this morning as we started our descent we were greeted by the first rappings of our resident woodpecker.

First signs
One degree above at 8:30am. An early promise of a day requiring sunglasses turned rapidly to a day requiring Prozac - overcast and damp.

Lucky you. We had even more snow over the weekend - and lots of minus temperatures...

It's raining here in Georgia with the threat of snow later today. I look forward to seeing the first signs of Spring here too.
Visiting from SITS. Have a great day! -

Hi Linda. Don't tell me -- 28 degrees, that's Fahrenheit, isn't it!! Maybe I should send you the Prozac!

We actually had sunshine and warmth in the sun here in Lazio until mid-afternoon today. We have the same yellow blue and winter spring flowers and the first daffodil is nearly out. Narcissi have been blooming for awhile.
Not Spring yet though as rain forecast again for the rest of the week. Sunshine is such an excellent anti-depressant isn't it! -
