6. One of my favorite flowers. Thanks for sharing the photo. I have daffodils

coming up, but nothing blooming yet (about 80 miles north of Atlanta).

Reminds me of this:

“If thou of fortune be bereft,
and in thy store there be but left
two loaves, sell one, and with the
dole, buy hyacinths to feed thy soul.”

― John Greenleaf Whittier

9. We have many species coming out of the ground, sprouting leaves and budding blossoms.

And we're 150 miles north of Chicago.

10. We have blackberries in San Diego in January!

Usually they ripen in July -- weirdest weather ever.

However we now have a cold front with temps set to dip down near freezing, so that will probably be the end of our rare winter crop.
