February 8

It has been mild and wet.  A break in the rain for most of the day but not in the mild: been over 50 degrees for over a week, predicted to be almost 60 degrees for the upcoming week.  Lots of flowers out.  Went for a walk earlier saw crocuses, daffodils, and plum trees in bloom.  Then later, wandering around the house, I looked out our living room window and was happily surprised to see flowering quince blooming.  One of my favorite spring flowers, always a pleasure to find them in my yard.  I cut a few sprigs for the house, but here is a picture.  Second is of clematis.
