A TIRED BUMBLEBEE

FLYING AROUND IN EARLY SPRING FOR THESE LITTLE CREATURES MUST BE EXHAUSTING, FLOWERS ARE EVER SO SLOWLY BLOOMING, AND THE CHILLY TEMPS SLOW THEM DOWN.  I LOVED THIS LITTLE MAN SNOOZING ON THE UNDERSIDE OF A MINI DAFFODIL.

HELLEBORES - THE FIRST BLOOMS OF THE NEW SPRING

HELLEBORES ARE A GIFT IN THE EARLY SPRING GARDEN - THEY HAVE TO BE MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE FLOWER.  WELL, EACH FLOWER THAT OPENS IS, BUT TODAY IT IS THIS GORGEOUS GEM.

OK, MAYBE JUST ONE MORE PRETTY LITTLE SNOWFALL - THEN GOODBYE OLD MAN WINTER

WOODPILE FROM A POOR OLD DOGWOOD TREE THAT DIED AND FELL OVER

THE FARM DOWN THE ROAD WHERE I HAVE A SMALL PLOT TO GROW VEGETABLES AND FLOWERS - MY HAPPY PLACE

COME ON SPRING, I'M SO TIRED OF THE COLD
