[Magdalen] Signs of the season

[Charles Wohlers]

Here in New England, wild witch hazel blooms in December. Maybe yours is 
confused?

We still have a foot-and-a-half of snow on the ground.   :-(
In about an hour I drive down to Mass., where close to a foot of snow is 
expected tomorrow.

No Spring here.

The ivory hellebores have opened, and snow crocus abound. The snowdrops are
blooming in their lovely microclimate and nothing will stop them, not even
tomorrow's promised temps in the 30s. The daffodils are definitely poking
their noses up.
