Greening of the greasewood

26 03 2024

Spring is here. Here’s the proof in the budding greasewood. πŸ™‚

I’m always happy when I see the greasewood budding again. It’s a good source of protein that the mustangs eat like ice cream. I equate it with warming weather, shedding coats and plumping ponies.

The fat little buds of spring! It’s so encouraging to see those signs of life again. One of the first things I notice here are swelling buds on the cottonwoods, and it’s beginning! Harbingers of a new season. πŸ˜€

My apricot trees are starting to bud, too. All the glorious things to notice about life returning! πŸ™‚

The buds were poking out here too but then we got some really cold days – hope my flowers didnt get frosted. The robins got here just before the last cold spell. They always look so darned confused standing around in the snow! Its warmed back up again – supposed to rain later today.

We were below freezing this morning – and had more snow. I can just picture your robins in the snow. πŸ™‚

Though we need more moisture (always), I can’t help but be excited for spring. πŸ™‚

Oh, yes, and more layers besides! I have not put away my gloves, headband, hat, silk wild rag, vests, coat, neck gaiter … ;)

Ha – I love that – the phrase, if not the resistance. πŸ™‚ I heard that southeastern Colorado got 8 inches of snow a couple of days ago! Resistance, for sure.

We got a lot of snow here in the valley. It didn’t last long, but maybe it was 8 inches.

Fattening up is a good thing for mustangs in the spring!
