Spring...

...has sprung.
Snowdrops have faded. Scilla and daffodils are blooming. Bright green bits are poking through lovely, moist earth. Magnolias are in heavy bud, birds are singing (too early in the morning), hockey nets have moved from the rink to the driveway (pedestrians beware). Soccer and lacrosse equipment is now strewn throughout the house. Sandals and swimsuits have re-appeared (prematurely) and morning frosts are fewer and farther between.
I love spring.

Can't say hockey nets ever get moved from rinks to driveways here in Arizona but still, spring has indeed sprung and I think it must be glorious everywhere.
