More Springtime, with sound effects.

Springtime! At last!

A month ago today I posted a picture of snow. Today, some pictures of Spring in our backyard. We have a huge number of crocus out, and a few daffs, thanks to the hard work of Son of, who planted all the bulbs. And, off in one corner of the yard, we also have blue scylla courtesy of a previous owner.

Interesting fact

Thomas Jefferson and John Adams died on the same day - July 4, 1826, which was also the 50th anniversary of this nation.

On The Other Hand, I've Been Kindled

For Valentine's Day the COG got me a Kindle. So the snow outside doesn't bother me at all because my new Kindle just arrived. I've already got 3 books on it and I'm half done with one of them.

Now I can travel with 1,200 of my favorite books close to me at all times. No, actually, what I plan on using it for is mass market paperbacks - mysteries, mostly, and some sci fi. They do have my favorite authors for these, and it will be wonderful to not have these books to dispose of. Plus, my book club titles are available and it will be perfect for them, since I rarely want to keep them. Basically, anything I don't want to keep and refer back to will be perfect on the Kindle.

Loving it.
