It's April 10. Spring flowers are in bloom. The lupine,
iris and day lilies are about 6 inches tall.

The flowering and fruit trees are in bloom (You can see
where this is going, can't you?) including our two mature
apricot trees. Leaves are emerging from buds on shade trees.

We had many days in the low 70's in March.

Today it is 30 degrees and SNOWING, with 6-8 inches forecast.

Here we go, another year w/o home-grown apricots.

I can't decide if it's fools not learning from former errors
or hope springing eternal, but over the weekend we planted
two cherry trees and another apricot (we hope it's a
later-blooming one.)
