The squirrels occasionally dig mine up. :(Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-48310111046972917442009-03-21T13:06:00.000-07:002009-03-21T13:06:00.000-07:00Daffodils are my favorite spring flower.

It's overcast and windy (and below 50), but at least we don't have any snow.

Quite a bit cooler today (only 42 right now), with rain earlier this morning. This is such a fickle time of year for Mother Nature.<BR/><BR/>Lynne - We had some rain this morning, but now the sun's out. The grass is already starting to green up!<BR/><BR/>I love my front porch, too. It's one of the little things that sold me on this house. We enjoy sitting outside in our rocking chairs, watching the world go by, especially in the summer evenings.<BR/><BR/>Fliss - Hello!! Thank you for stopping by my book blog. Sorry you can't grow bulbs like this in Florida. We lived in San Diego for 20 years and I don't think we had tulips and daffodils there either. <BR/><BR/>Dad - You're welcome! :) See my weather update in the comments above. Chilly and rainy here now. :(<BR/><BR/>Stephanie - Yeah, well, it didn't last. It was beautiful and warm yesterday and the day before that, but today it's chilly and damp. At least it's not snowing! :)<BR/><BR/>Dar - I hope I've seen the last of that white stuff for a long time. I'll put up with the rain, but I really don't want any more snow.<BR/><BR/>Robin - I heard it was snowing again in the Northwest. Hopefully it won't be much longer before you get some warmer weather. Hope springs eternal! :)<BR/><BR/>Nan - Yes, it really is a good thing you love winter. I don't think I could survive your long New Hampshire winters! Love your comment about my note to Rod. It's tempting! Unfortunately, we probably can't afford to move back there. I sure would love a little bungalow near the beach. <BR/><BR/>Staci - Aw, thanks! Your words meant a lot to me. <BR/><BR/>Diane - Well, these daffs aren't up yet? They're probably only as high as yours are right now, if that. This photo was taken a couple of years ago. They are quite pretty when they start blooming, though. I can't wait!Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-36801865057054533142009-03-17T16:56:00.000-07:002009-03-17T16:56:00.000-07:00Wow>>>> gorgeous daffodils!

It's a really, really, really good thing that winter is my favorite season or I wouldn't be so happy. :<) I do feel though that one day ol' Rod will awaken to a note on the pillow that says, 'gone to Cal. - come join me!' :<) (hope I haven't told you that already; I've been thinking it for months now)Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-35227933670898364322009-03-16T17:04:00.000-07:002009-03-16T17:04:00.000-07:00Oh it has been a long winter in the Northwest, so ...Oh it has been a long winter in the Northwest, so I'm with your dad in looking for signs of spring!
