An American in Britain

It seems that spring comes much earlier here. The days have been getting warmer, although the last few days have felt a bit nippy at times. The flowers are growing. Every spring I anticipate seeing them, and the snowdrops and crocuses have lived up to expectations. Not only that, the daffodils have come up, though they have not bloomed yet.

If I were in the US, I know that I would be speaking too soon. Very often, we would get a spring snowstorm sometime in March. It never seems to fail. Yet, the weather has been too nice for me to believe that any such thing would happen here. I will have to wait and see. For now, I am content and look forward to spending time outdoors again.
