More surprises...

More flowers that just appeared in my backyard.

Purple and viney, not necessarily a part of
the surrounding vegetation in these pics.

The yard is getting more and more overgrown with each rainstorm. Even my welcome mat is green. :) (You think I'm kidding, after this last storm and the humidity and warmth, I've got some kind of algae growing on my front porch mat...)

It's a Sickness...

Yet another new kind of flower in my yard:
It's kinda like Christmas, these things come up out of the ground, and then you wait to see what they'll be.
These are *tiny* and they look like little upside-down grape clusters.

And this is the last daffodil shot, I promise. :)

Something Purple!

As I went over to my soon-to-be daffodils to give them their morning pep talk ("Come on daffy-dills, you can do it!" [Yes, I actually do this.]), what should I notice next to them, but something already blooming! :)
And something just about to be blooming. Don't worry, I cleaned the leaves and stuff out from around them so that they can breathe better.

As if it isn't obvious, I am breathlessly awaiting spring!

Spring Is Coming...

See those flowers in there, just bursting to get out?
Soon, Grasshopper, soooonnn...

Not Art...

Drying roses in the doorway.
I had to explain they weren't permanent.
Some people must think I'm extremely eccentric... :o)

Something Green!

There are three clumps just like this down the side of my house. OK, gardener-types, what should I do? Leave the mulchiness to keep them warmer for now, right?

And this is the bullseye pothole from the parking lot. Water has such amazing properties... :o)

The Last Snow?

Hope "springs" eternal... :)
My car, drifted...

And the trashcan. Notice the gate as well.

Snow-covered

I didn't realize it was snowing until Sirius came in snow-covered...

When the Human's Home Sick

That's when it's time for puppies to really relax...
What a rough life he leads...

The Prodigal Hat

What was lost, is found! :) Bought this hat (with some cajoling) at the Boulder Handweavers Guild sale a couple of years ago (?!?) now. It's been my favorite ever since. :)
