The rain today melted all the snow off my flower beds. It's supposed to turn cold again tonight, but it doesn't matter. It's still early February, and winter weather in Michigan generally persists through March (and sometimes into April), but it doesn't matter. I may have to drive home tonight in freezing rain on slick roads, but it doesn't matter.
The crocus I planted last fall are poking little green shoots through the ground out into the light. That's right, on Feb. 5, with at least six more weeks of winter on tap, something is growing.
Spring is coming, people. We're going to make it through the winter, just like we have every winter before.
Spring is coming. You heard it here first.
