Noticed some green shoots coming up in the yard a few days ago. I think they might be daffodils. Today is cold and there are the sporadic snow fluffies in the air but while taking Chloe for her walk this morning I noticed some crocuses (croci?) in the yard across the street and also in the yard two houses down from ours. There are some buds appearing on the tree behind our house. I love spring.

Many folks around here have those euro-style oval decals on their cars with "MV" (for Martha's Vineyard),
I had the "MV" on my previous car. Have been to the Cape many times but never there. We "branded" my car as a joke because they're my SO's initials.
