Well it’s finally March, although it seems that this year is already flying by. Spring is just a mere 20 days away – at least the official first day of Spring. This last week our state was covered in a blanket of white. Some were more like buried in a blanket of white. We did not share in the fun of multiple feet or even inches of the white stuff. We did however manage to receive a nice rain which helped to liven up our pond for all those things down deep under water that are ready for the warmer days to come. I noticed our first kingfisher out fishing the pond just the other day. A bit earlier than usual but a very welcomed sight.
I still feel that Spring is not completely ready to make it way here. Yet it still gives us occasional glimpses of its impending arrival. This morning as I went and filled my many bird feeders, I examined my flower beds throughout my yard. Many of my flowers are peeking out. I want so bad to go and clean out the weathered leaves and such that has accumulated around them. I know that this could be a very bad idea as it is these very leaves that drive me crazy that are keeping these gentle little plants warm. So I keep myself back from doing such things until a later time.
Soon enough the warmer weather will come and then I will be forever going on about the abundance of yard work that I have in front of me. There is always something isn’t there.
The weekend is near. I wish for all of you a pleasant one.

Most definitely...don't get the winter covering out of the way of Spring quite yet. Too early, there is always a threat of a frost yet.
But....hurry up Spring. I hear'ya!
Mother Moon, I love that you have been out in the garden checking on your plants. I am afraid to check for fear I will start poking around and cause more harm than good (as you said) and so I just look from afar.
Glad to read you here today, Oma Linda
I hope you have a very pleasant weekend too ;o) I look outside, with the thick snow and wonder how the plants survive? It's amazing! I to want to jump out there and pay them a visit ;o)
Happy March to you, as well. Wishing you warm weather and beautiful spring flowers...soon, I hope!
Finally getting a chance (on a VERY early Sunday morning,) to settle in with a nice cup of coffee and read up on what I've missed in blogland. Can I just say how happy I am to see your lovely presence here again?! Hugs & green Spring blessings to you!
Jen
