Dandelion day

Air temperature 36 F, wind NW gusting over 20 mph, partly cloudy. Most of yesterday's snow has melted -- our local total was about an inch. Gathered the traditional Mother's Day bouquet of dandelions in a relish jar, but they were closed against the cold. We'll see how the display works once they've thawed.

Also, cuckoo-flower and shadbush blooms are opening.
