SPRING 2023, WEEK 5: A bit late, since I've been gone for a while. Let's start with the usual view from the deck [note -- all these photos were taken on Saturday before I left}]:

There's still no change, even though the weather is clearly warming. From what I can see from the ground, the trees haven't really begun to bud out. It's the same at the fire pit -- no notable change.

The yard, at least is still green, but all the deciduous trees along our street are still bare.

Until Sunday then, when the dogwood trees return.
