This just came from Andy Rudin, down in Pennsylvania -

This is the first one to bloom in our yard.

Yesterday was the day.

Spring's a comin'!!!

Andy

As I watch the thermometer slowly sink with the sun, and see the snow piled high on all my flower beds, this was indeed a welcome "breath of spring." We'll get there, but it won't be for a few weeks. By then perhaps Andy will be back at Joe's Pond and can enjoy a second spring!!
