Shoots & Leaves

I interrupt this blog post hiatus (resulting from grading, packing, and moving, among other things) to inform you that I saw the first leaves of spring today. Hooray! I saw the first shoots of grass a couple weeks ago (and accidentally startled Danielle quite badly because I was so excited) but today I saw the first honest-to-goodness leaves! This means that by the middle of the week all the trees around town should be a lovely, fresh, spring green. Yes, the end of the brown and grey season has arrived and it's so exciting!
