Last Saturday, I checked for new blossoms.  None were out.  I took this picture with the intention of posting it today under the banner of “Promises of Things to Come.”

On Easter, I went out again on another scouting mission.  Just below the new basement window–it had been replaced on Saturday–I discovered these.

It was very special to find those first blossoms on Easter.  I can’t find words to tell you how I felt.

It looks like we are in for a good week.
