Hail to the Chief.

3-13-20 SHORT HILLS: It has stayed warm and pleasant, today started with rain, 0.4 inches, but cleared up by the early afternoon. It was breezy, and the sun on my back felt warm. The plants are rushing ahead with reckless abandon, but, with one week until the Equinox, maybe they know what they’re doing. I’m still dreading a late snow storm.

Short Hills has its first case of Covid today. Our Friday concert at Carnegie Hall was canceled as well as all sports activity, schools, museums, Broadway and just about everything else.

I noticed that both Trump and Pence were both in contact with a Brazilian diplomat at some function who is positive for the virus. Maybe Nancy will be President in two weeks.

New blooms: forsythia, pachysandra, red maple, elm.


Purple Crocus in the packysandra.

Forsythia is open a week before the Equinox, which is the earliest that I remember.

Pachysandra flowers.

Another crocus.

Red Maple is why we are both sneezing.

Elm flowers have been open for a while.
