Here in Ontario, January weather is supposed to be very cold and filled with snow...much like it did on Boxing Day when we got this six inches of snow..(this is the view from our patio doors)
But its been very mild the last couple of days with rain. We even hit record temperatures here yesterday of 60 degrees.
I took advantage of the warm weather to take down some of my Christmas decorations outside. While doing so I saw an amazing sign of SPRING, which really shouldn't be happening here just yet...
THE PUSSYWILLOWS ARE BLOOMING!
This really shouldn't be happening...BUT I was so HAPPY to see this...I am not one who LOVES the winter. So this really made my day!
I know this weather is a fluke and it won't last long, but while its here I am going to take advantage of it. I went out this morning and checked for other signs of spring, but didn't find any in the garden...just some squirrels in the bird feeder, but what else is new! There were lots of birds chirping. I am sure that they are enjoying this warm spurt too...
I think a day-trip is definitely on the agenda today for McG and I...maybe some antiquing in the country and lunch at some little diner...can't wait 'til he gets home from work!
Hope you're enjoying the warm weather - I know I am!!
