Signs of Spring

We interrupt the analysis of Rachel v. Zenyatta to bring you an update on the winter of our discontent here in southeastern Pennsylvania.
First, the good news. The snow is almost gone.

Actually to be fair, there truly are only patches left here and there, one of which happens to be in my driveway right next to the wheelbarrow, which rolled itself there during last weekend's monsoon.

And while the rain was no fun, it did seem to add inches to these daffodil shoots, now clearly visible IN THE MUD!!! I think there may be some tulips in there as well.

But there's more--this looks like a forsythia bud getting ready to POP!! Sorry for the blurry closeup but you get the general idea.

Can sneezing and itchy eyes be far behind?
