After walking to church in winter coats,
hats and wearing scarves as well as gloves, we were happy to get inside out of
the brisk wind. On the way home we were grateful for the same get up. I have to
say that we did meet some much younger people who were in shorts, but with a
jacket.
After lunch Leroy and I both went out
to finish delivering the newsletters. Again we put on more winter attire and
met some who were, in my opinion, scantily dressed. I guess that is one way to separate
out the young and the old or the foolish and the wise.
Leaves are giving a green glow to
hedges with some flowers blooming here and there especially on the south side
of buildings. The tulips are up but look a bit weary. The jonquils in the
neighborhood look much more at home in this wavering weather.
None of the seeds that Leroy planted
outside have sprouted. We both think it might have been too cold. Course as I told
him seeds left on their own will sometimes sprout later. Hope is still alive. Our
garlic and onions look quite fine. If there were more of either I would be
using some right now.
Is it spring or something else, but
Leroy is quite busy working to organize stamps that he has been given. For some
time he has an album that someone else had put together. Now he is soaking
those stamps off the pages where they have been stuck. It is quite a big job,
but he tells me, “There are many interesting stamps here.”
So he is quite willing to put forth
the effort.
