Saw our first Spring robin early this morning! A real sign of Spring on this Vernal Equinox day!
However, we have SNOW in the forecast for this evening and on Easter Sunday. So, I'm enjoying the moments of this very bright, sunny morning!
Haven't spotted this Robin yet:
HAPPY SPRING!

Hey Tink,
It's ^^%^$ COLD here, still. Has been all week. And like you, we're expecting SNOW tomorrow. Hmm...
I don't mind winter one little bit, but I get irritated when it hangs on and on and on... through May sometimes.... arrhhh...
Of course, last September I was complaining about the heat....
I'm not ready for Easter. Everything's happening too early this year!
Happy Good Friday...
- Lucy.
Happy Spring back, Tink!
I saw my first robin yesterday morning on my way to work, but I've been hearing them in the trees for the past week.
What's odd about this time of year, is keeping my mouth shut while skiing to avoid swallowing a mosquito...
Oh, it's Robin Williams!
I was wondering who that man was...
DUH!
Happy Easter and Spring, hope it comes to you soon.(spring that is) Ooh, would love to spot that Robin!! The funniest man EVER!!
xo
Thanks Lucy, Dale, Grace! Stay warm and DRY out there, Lucy It snowed this morning. Only a dusting. Sugar puff for the Easter eggs. :o)
Mosquitos in March, Dale Now THAT is a weird and amazing fact! When I first saw this photo of Robin Williams on the 'net ... I almost didn't recognize him.
Grace... Happy Easter to you and the girls! Marshmallow peeps, anyone? :o)
ooh cant do peeps, way to sugery! lol
I have a funny anecdote about peeps that I missed blogging.
The other week, as an Easter present, my colleague Barb excitedly phoned me up and said, "Are you sitting at your desk, Lucy? coz I have something to give you." Julia (now long since retired) had visited with Barb and had wanted me to have something.
Julia liked stale peeps. Very stale, hard ones. About 9 years ago I saved a few peep bunnies for her that had gone stale. With a sticky note saying, "Julia -- I heard you like your peeps VERY stale. Are these stale enough for you? :-) "
So what does Barb bring me? The same peeps BACK! From Julia. With a note attached (over my ancient sticky note) saying, "Yes, I think they're stale enough now!"
OMG, those peeps were disgusting looking. Julia had repackaged them in a little box with Easter grass. The once-yellow peeps were now a pale, sickly off-white and lightly pitted with what looked like small pox. Other than that they were completely intact. Approximately a decade old.
I LAUGHED.... and displayed them on my desk, where they now sit. For the next?......
Me neither Grace they were my favorites as a kid, though. Lucy! lol ... I love stories like that. Amazing. It will be interesting to find out how *long* those Peeps can go before they're completely petrified. And will they dissolve completely, or become fossilized?? I can see 1000 years from now when someone unearths that library and discovers the Peep Fossils. What would they make of them? :o)
