On Feb. 2nd, Jimmy the Ground saw his shadow to indicate six more weeks of winter. But almost two months have passed and I still have to turn on the heat in my house. In addition, rain has fallen more often than not, the sun seldom shines, and the temperature outside is cool.
Until this afternoon, I was almost ready to believe that spring would never arrive. I woke up to gray skies and the threat of rain. But by mid-afternoon the sun came out and I noticed for the first time that green buds and blossoming leaves have sprouted on the trees. Furthermore, in addition to some dandelions, I even spotted many daffodils as I drove to a friend’s house. The temperature hasn’t risen much above 60 degrees. But other signs of spring are sneaking up everywhere to make me hope that spring and summer will finally arrive.
