Resilience


















































The daffodils flattened beneath 15" of heavy wet snow are the daffodils in the foreground in the second photo...
which was taken several days after the first. Amazing!

    Howard Dean is still, and always, first. I surely wish he would have started a third party. I'd have been so there.

    Hi guys.

    I'm totally with you, Susan. I'd switch to the Dean Party in a heartbeat!

    Alan, IIRC The Enchanted April was published in 1922 so, yes, post Edwardian. It's a lovely book! Slightly improbable, but an absolutely lovely book for all that. I finished it last night and am currently rereading The Amazing Interlude by Mary Roberts Rinehardt. Not a mystery, this book is about a young girl from Pittsburgh who goes to Belgium in 1915 to run a soup kitchen and rest house near the front. Another absolutely lovely book, yet it is not sentimental, just true and heartwarming.

    hi--was going to chat some more, but it was brought to my attention that No. 1 on the list at the moment is scratching the cat's neck....
