Have taken a walkabout here on the homestead and there are some signs of spring to report. There is also a mole making himself quite at home in both our front and back yards. (If any one remembers how the vole fared last summer when I caught sight of him by our back porch, then you already know what will happen to the mole if he dares show his face when I am around.) But, happier news is that the tulips are up about 4 inches, as are daffodils and bluebells. The pussy willow tree has lots of grey furry buds and we have crocuses in bloom. Several days ago when I was cutting back rose bushes a red lady bug landed on my hand - that's got to be a certain sign to commence the gardening season!!
