Early Spring

I took this a week ago to point out early signs of spring to my family (especially those in California and Florida).
Those signs: Diminishing log pile, compost lid blown off with wild 45 mph wind, and indescribably lovely early spring green.
One week later - everything is more lush, the serviceberry trees are blooming and there are a lot more beautiful bulbs, but the weather has become cold again and we are getting swamped with monsoon-like wind and rains.
Vermont!
