Slowly it turned...

      I watched my first spring training game on Saturday, so it must be springtime, right?   I also blew 6 inches of snow off the driveway, so it's still winter, right?   During March, you can hold both thoughts in your head at the same time, at least in northern New York.   Thanks to the vagaries of climate change, this area as well as northern New England seems not to be reaping the benefits of early springs.  An NYT columnist from Tennessee is terrified by the unfolding spring in her area.  Many spring flowers and trees are up to six weeks early this year and the possibility of a late spring freeze troubles her.  Meanwhile, there is a foot of snow in my backyard and the chickadees are grateful for the feeders out there.
