Blooms and Warmer Days

Spring often starts slow, then bursts into bloom.  It was cold for a while and the pollinators didn't show up until a little late so we probably won't have much in the way of plums or cherries this year, but now that it is warmer we have flowers and bugs and spring is really here.
