A Sign of Good Things to Come!

This pear tree has produced the best and sweetest pears I've ever tasted. Most years we have had enough to share with the neighbors and still have pears for the freezer. I just noticed today that it is once again in full bloom!



March came in like a lamb here in Southeast Texas with a nice warm day and it's looking like spring is here. Since we've had such a mild winter the azaleas started blooming a few weeks ago and are almost at their peak in some places. Today I even spotted some bluebonnets blooming in the neighborhood. We're expecting a little cold weather this weekend and then that will probably be it for our winter. Yea!


The Year's at the Spring
(Robert Browning)

The year's at the spring
And the day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven:
The hillside's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn:
God's in his heaven--
All's right with the world!
