Signs of Spring

Even though we have two inches of new snow on the ground today, the signs of spring are everywhere. The robins and other songbirds are back (don't their feet ever get cold?), large flocks of geese are flying overhead northward bound, the tulips and daffodils are braving the snow and sending forth green shoots, and I actually saw a crocus in bloom!

Another sign of spring at the marina is the dreaded dredger!! Every spring this metal monster roosts on OUR point, from whence it cleans out the channel from the marina to the lake. Tom caught it in action this year.




This is why we plant grass every year! But isn't that view awesome??
