Time Will Fly

*Daffodil buds begin to appear on January 22, 2022 despite 17 inches of snow in the 3 weeks previous.*

As I look through my photographs from last winter, January 2022, along with my notes of the weather, I am surprised at how quickly spring descended upon me and the gardens around my cabin.

*And by February 23, 2022 Daffodil blooms were popping open*

I first notice that snow was plentiful in the first weeks of January. Nine inches on January 3rd, three inches on January 7th, and five inches on January 16th. And then I compare the thought of that much snow with photographs of the buds of Daffodils coming up on January 22nd. Not holding back, spring is in the air. And yet, there is more snow as winter plows on.

As I turn to the photos of March 11th, I see that spring indeed has arrived.

BUT, the very next day the Daffodils have a heavy blanket of five inches of snow.

But, oh the time flies. Snow or blooms, time really does fly.
