Spring Parade Marches On.

4-2-25 SHORT HILLS: We had one day in the eighties, a fore-taste of June, followed by more rain, wind and cold. I have continued to remove deadfall, but every windy day brings more of it down. The new pool cover pump works well, I plug it in after every rain and then unplug it when the water is gone. 


Lily and Danna were here for a visit over the weekend, and I had lunch with Bill a few days ago. This house is getting painted, which is causing the usual chaos. 


Snaps for NJ Senator Cory Booker for his long, record-setting speech.


New blooms: forsythia, spice bush, daffodil, Okama cherry, pachysandra, pussy willow. 

Daffodils. Always a welcome sight for winter-weary eyes.
Forsythia brings more yellow.
Spice bush also says yellow.
