jennlkThere's a nice scattering of early crocuses in the side garden, and a couple of snowdrops. There's a lot of tulips and daffs coming up in that bed as well, but the rest of the gardens are still pretty quiet.
The snow is all gone. In a last gasp of winter, it was 7F/-14C in the backyard this morning. Brrr. J put the pump in the pond on Saturday, but sometime yesterday we lost power out to the pond, and so the pump stopped working, so there's a nice layer of ice on the pond. The birdbath froze solid. I didn't notice that the pond had stopped running until I was in the middle of making dinner, and while I mentioned it to J before I left for rehearsal, he didn't do anything about it yesterday. The GFCI breaker isn't tripped, but there's no power at the outlet -- I took a desk lamp out to check it.
DB leaves on a music department trip to NYC tomorrow after school, so today I'm doing laundry (he needs his dress blacks for the performance, and something not-black for the theater).
We've been reading a lot of music on Monday nights. The newish tuba player was commenting on the sheer quantity of stuff that the Maestro was saying "is for April", but we play for 90 minutes or so, and some of it will no doubt show up in the summer repertoire as well.
