This is not this year’s forsythia. This time last year after a mild winter and an early spring, the forsythia behind the driveshed was in full bloom.
This year, as the snow is sticking around and spring is dragging her heels, the buds are closed up tight and no blossoms have arrived yet.
Two weeks in a row now, my mid-week post has been my “be on the lookout for spring” post. As we’ve moved into another cold snap over the past couple of days–complete with daily snow streamers–the search is still on.
Well at least you got your snowy winter! Be careful what you wish for, hey? Though I’m sure the winter was worth it, with skating and snow days and winter parties 😀
That is true. At the start of winter, I’m always hoping for a snowy one. By the end of winter, I just want it all to melt and spring to arrive!
