I really only saw gray and brown. <em>Layanee, I saw quite a few more colors in your pictures than you did! I hope you've seen them by now too. -kris</em> Kris, honestly I read this post just now after I posted and we are thinking somewhat alike although I am going back outside tomorrow to see all those alluring colors.

Layanee, I saw quite a few more colors in your pictures than you did! I hope you’ve seen them by now too. -kris

I am loving just getting reacquainted with my little plants now that I can see them again. Spring has never felt so close (only 2 months til I can plant something...) <em>Lynn, 2 months seems like hardly any time at all, doesn't it? I wonder if spring will still feel close by as the temps dip back into the bitter colds... -kris</em> Muddy Boot! hee hee hee.

Lynn, 2 months seems like hardly any time at all, doesn’t it? I wonder if spring will still feel close by as the temps dip back into the bitter colds… -kris

Thanks so much for words and photos that touch the heart. My husband and I moved to enchanted Bristol last November, and joined Blithewold right away. He was really surprised to find so much to appreciate about a garden in Winter; I was not. I was born on the Winter Solstice, and so take secret pleasure in watching the weather channel announcing the sunset getting later each day. That is the day that the year turns around, and the earth makes its subtle shift of the seasons; the celestial "grinding of the wheels" that adjusts the days as we progress towards summer! What a great day to be born on for me!! I am happy to have found your words of inspiration, and look forward to reading them in the future. Thanks!! <em>Thank YOU, Jean and happy un-birthday! I'm so glad to meet a neighbor (and a member - hooray!) - I wonder if we might have actually met once or twice already?... Anyway, I hope to see you again here (on these pages) and here (on these grounds) often. -kris</em> I just discovered your blog and have such delight in reading back over recent entries.
