And then summer? Will we burst into flame when we walk outside? I guess we'll find out soon enough.

Even though it's from my childhood and you're too young! <br /><br />Anyway, Fester is WAY cuter than that ugly mug below him. In fact, he's looking downright hot.

On the other hand, the bees are all pretty much still firmly tucked into bed, which made it much easier yesterday when we moved ALL five hives. Most exciting. Hope they like their new home (fifteen feet from their old one). Love seeing all the flowers there, very pretty.edhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13537872932411668279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-10089667893772834912012-02-20T16:25:06.886-08:002012-02-20T16:25:06.886-08:00I shan't even deign to answer that question at...I shan't even deign to answer that question at the end, but will instead share that I was happily scrolling through the photos, showing my husband the various angles of your rad new car, and then WOAH, FESTER.<br /><br />It was scary.Kristin @ Going Countryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00221544641416039741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-71884504560706858152012-02-20T16:12:57.950-08:002012-02-20T16:12:57.950-08:00I have crocus blooming and narcissus/daffodils abo...I have crocus blooming and narcissus/daffodils about to burst open. Today I had three rain barrels plus intriguing storage/retrieval system installed; tonight it rains! Harrrr! Then, as an old-timer (older than Fester, I fear) I can provide witness to a similar winter ('91-'92) when the crocus bloomed in February. It was a mild summer . . . very good for gardening.Pattyskypantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17799925854647672151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-70895050250714513592012-02-20T14:45:57.095-08:002012-02-20T14:45:57.095-08:00When I read the title I thought it was a new fruit...When I read the title I thought it was a new fruit tree or something else for the garden, but that Fester blew me away. <br /><br />As for spring, the streets around Lake Merritt are in full bloom, especially the trees, then this weekend we were in Dry Creek and you would have thought it was April. I just keep holding my breath that winter doesn't decide to show up in April.CLPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08664381584362721140noreply@blogger.com
