Spring has sprung





This is our first spring in Copake,and we've decided to take a wait and see approach to planting. There are some beautiful trees and shrubs throughout the yard, and we're curious to see how they bloom. So we decided not to plant too much, and instead see what is already out there.

The first thing to show up--right on schedule--are the bulbs: crocus, tulips, and daffodils. They lined the stone wall along the driveway. Next came the forsythia, or floorslithia, as Vivi called it. She and I took a walk in the backyard on this rainy Sunday morning, and snipped a few blooms and branches to bring a little bit of Spring into the house.


Enjoy!
