Snow bet on skiing next weekend

I was so intent on taking a picture of skiing in mud
I missed Emily going to the car!


The snow is going, going.
There is one large mud patch on the north slope,
for "advanced" skiers. 


And back at home,
Here is the bed of daffs and tulips.


Anemone!
The wooly thyme seems pleased to be out from under snow,
and that fat bulb probably is a colchium. 


No more garden until we clean it up.
This week I'll tell you about going toe to toe with the Park.
I don't know who will blink first.

  9. Lots of daffs and tulips coming up. my daffs disappeared altogether. People picked the flowers as they bloomed and the bulbs just vanished. I dug around a bit but couldn't find a single one. It will be time to plant my bulbs soon.

  10. Your header surely proves that your snow has moved on to colder places. Your garden debris photo is cute -- some squirrels had a riotous time in your yard breaking up their dinner table after enjoying all those acorns which meant they left those now empty shells. Enjoy your spring garden! -- barbara.

  12. Cleaning up in the garden - don't mention it - our garden after winter is in an awful mess and at present it is just too cold to venture out there although all the snow is gone.

  13. You must have a few oak trees around given the number of acorns in your last picture.

  20. We've just had another blizzard. I can't wait until our yard looks like yours! And looking forward to the story to come.

  21. It has been a disappointing spring with all the overcast days but this week the sun has fought bravely out by mid-day. Today though I saw that things are going to bust into bloom soon, other than the trees that is. Re you and the park...I rather imagine they had a nervous tic or two by the time you were through with them.
