Harbingers of Springtime: Early Seasonal Color


Unseasonably warm weather for the Boston MA -Providence RI corridor in March at 60+ degrees F but breezy. The first harbingers of Spring have blossomed forth with crocuses poking out of the mulch under the birdfeeder.

Been wanting to decorate a holiday wreath by adding on forsythia for years. Today is the day. Winter may appear to be but a shadow on the wall but I remember the adage about the month of March - In like a Lamb then Out like a Lion!

We may not be done with the wiley ways of winter yet. This was the year that our only snowfall worthy of a snowman roll was back in October 2011!  But what fun was to be had to roll 'em and build 'em! Two Artists in Endeavor and Creative Pursuit of multimedia sculpture below and obviously Living the Moment. Snowman stylish in Abercrombie wear, don't you think? Fun to demolish and destroy as well.

So I start wearing my wild color Hawaiian shirt collection today while attending to the outdoor forsythia work.
