It’s early April and where I live the daffodils should have been blooming a week or two ago. As I look at my garden today, I’m still waiting for these early spring gems to dazzle me with their brilliance.

Cold and dreary seems to be more a condition of February and early March, not April. I am hopeful that by next week the temperatures will increase. I don’t know why the Great Plains have been so cold – I’d love to send it northward where the polar icecaps are melting to help that area out!
