A few days ago, we had snow on the ground and today the mercury hit seventy degrees.  I love the capriciousness of March.  It’s the Yin and Yang month of the year.  Winter and spring battle for four weeks.  We root for spring to win since by March we’ve had enough of winter.

     Tomorrow spring will rule for most of the day but winter will make a raid on our evening.  We will wonder if spring will rally in the next few days.  My budding gardens say yes.  Grass is slowly showing signs of life.  Faster would nice so I don’t have dogs tracking in mud.

     The Koi are hungry they beg for food now, and our frogs are beginning to creep out of the pond to hunt, more signs that spring will soon win the battle.

     It won’t be long and I’ll be digging in sun warmed soil planting flowers and vegetables.  By my back door, my chives are starting to peek through the mulch in their pot.  The mint and lavender will soon follow suit.
