Spring is on the way...

 C is getting over oral surgery and I've had a sore back for the last few todays but this morning was mild and sunny, so after breakfast we took a quick trip to Farmleigh. At least lockdown #3 allows a 5km radius for exercise;  last year the first time C was able to get to Farmleigh was on our anniversary in June, because initially, if I recall, it was only 2 km. The walled and sunken gardens are still closed off, but even just walking along the drive and round the lake was very pleasant with some warmth, plenty of bird song and spring bulbs. The magnolias are all budding - we missed them last year.

I am totally envious of your weather and scenery right now. All those beautiful spring blooms give me hope that the weather will be breaking soon. We still have a carpet of about a foot-and-a-half of snow with more due tomorrow. But they say it will warm after that. Fingers crossed. Hope you both feel better soon.
