Thursday add-on

These little "thumbnail pictures" are all "clickable!" Enjoy!





The new lamp posts now march all the way down Sanger Avenue to Mrs. Woodhouse's residence....



...and down the litttle curving sidewalk on the point of Monument Park!



Initial criticisms of either color or unecessary proximity to each other are fading and now conversations are filled with praise for the elegant appearance of the lamps and the speed with which the two electricians are completing the installations considering that
it was still quite chilly, today, even though the sun was bright.



Oh, ohhhh! I don't know how the lilacs and magnolia buds are going to fare, but this a very large bud on my Helleborus orientalis - Lenten Rose - is looking pretty sad. They're supposed to bloom just as the last snows are melting in the Spring ----- not at the beginning of Winter!

But the days really are getting noticably longer - especially in the afternoon - and I'm afraid this is just one of several varieties of plants that have been fooled!
