Some Pretty Stuff in an Ugly World

Very unusual. 4 blooms in one day today. Indoors. Getting harder to bring this in for the winter. The plant is over 6 feet tall and in a giant pot! Heeeee

Nice Olds. We have some daffodils blooming in the front yard. I'm ready for Spring!

Global warming aided. An absurdly mild winter, but I won't complain.

Don’t jinx us. In 1969, we had a giant snow storm on I think 3/30,31. Easter Sunday. I had to drive back to UCONN in it. Luckily, I had inherited my Grandad’s 61 Plymouth Fury. A real tank. I made the hour and a half drive in about 4 hours in the dark, but when I plowed the Fury into a nearly 3 foot high parking spot, I was stuck for good. Being a stubborn 20 year old, I rocked the car back and forth from drive to reverse over and over. Yep!!! Burned out the very tough push button auto trans. The following week, it made it home one more time. I had saved up my next semesters tuition which was about 250 bucks. Kissed that goodbye for a rebuilt transmission.

Here’s the exact car. Color and all. Could be mine for all I know. Very rare.

Spring has sprung!

No lack of trunk space, I gather ??

Neither in the 61 Fury or my new phone. Heeee

Thanks CBK. As we get new blooms up here in Ct, I will try and remember to post a few. I feel better already. Heeeee.
