Spring interruptus
Sunday started like this:
And the mountains looked like this:
Returning from the afternoon walk, I laughed in surprise to see…
Lupins! Small, just getting going, but I love them. They will eventually nearly cover the ground on part of our mountain loop path. And after a rain, they hold drops of water in their center and around their leaves looking like they are home to millions of diamonds. From last year: Raindrops on Lupins
And in the corner of the old garden, the first of the rhubarb made an appearance. Three weeks and a rhubarb coffee cake might be in the making!
But, Monday morning….
My day fell apart work-wise, actually internet service provider-wise and I missed getting any photos of the snow in full light. It snowed off and on until mid-afternoon, but the temperature never hit freezing so the accumulation stayed at the one inch mark and by late afternoon was mostly gone, dripping off the roof like it was raining. It was sunny and pleasant for an hour or so and then the wind picked up, clouds increased and by our evening walk the next front in our “late winter storm” was upon us.
This morning:
Winter until Friday…Spring interruptus.
