Spring Has Started!

It is finally really spring! The last 2 Sundays we have gone to the Frink Centre to check out the status of wild flowers. Evita is checking out the Trout Lily, which was on the verge of blooming the second week.
Not much is happening yet, but hepatica was blooming the first week and was joined by bloodroot the following week. The second week answered a question for us -- are the flowers out when it is rainy? The answer is no, they pretty well close up.
