Thinking Out Loud

I was out in the garden this morning.

It is almost mid-February and being at 44 degrees latitude

on the shores of the North Atlantic Ocean and at sea-level,

 I was wondering around the garden!

There were buds on trees and the ground was damp and soggy.

I came across this little lantern with it's wonderful rusty patina.

I do believe we are living through the process of climate change.

Whether we are or not, I could get used to this.

Imagine, we could be out and in the garden by March!!!
