spring is in the air

the polar vortex has either spun out, or run down, or moved on, or whatever the meteorological term might be. in any case, the temps went from double digits below zero F yesterday, to double digits above today. i think we hit a balmy 17 degrees F (-8 C) this afternoon. tomorrow looks like mid-30s (0 C). this photo is from last june, and that’s because -8 C suddenly feels like summer.

    Thanks for this image of spring. With the warms temps today in MN I do feel like spring is not do far away.

    Wish I could say the same – 40°C today and 43°C forecast for the next two days. Those plants look so fresh, not like my wilted garden.

    This reminds of Tessa Treager’s work in the 1980’s but more spare. Her work now is completely different – I’ll see if I can search out some old pictures.

    I love your ‘snowy tassels’.

    • I just looked up Tessa’s work. It’s wonderful. Thank you for the recommendation. And the compliment :-)
