Checked out the BeltLine over by Ansley, where we haven’t walked in…well, since The Foot. It’s time…but didn’t happen today. Notice that the golf course green is still a bit brown….
And the headline is from this “Temp Tag”—fella, ya better hope a cop doesn’t stop you!
You can’t tell it from these photos, but the sun did come out a bit for a bit. Wan sun, though.
March! March, already! Whew, this year is flying by!

Carolina jessamine buds. I think it’s a corruption/variant of jasmine.
Carolina jessamine flower. On the moss below above. Although I didn’t see any open flowers on the plant, only buds.
This was even more deconstructed. A petal wrack line. Without a coast, so I guess not a true wrack line.
Title refers to a line in an early season three episode of “Corner Gas,” our current binge-watching show. Go Saskatchewan!

I thought I had high-quality deep thoughts to pass along…but turns out I’m just another cheap date.
Standing on the ground, I was too far away to see the buds, to determine if they’re beginning to swell. Instead, I just moseyed along…better able to monitor the ground-level springiness.

Yeah, more blooming bulbs!
And one of those apple/pear Rosaceae species….

Smells so great, so very floral! [Forgot the name….]
No blooms; no smell. But prototypical yellow-green, I’d say.

Right in the nearby neighbors’ yard I found a cabbage…already bolting! In February! Crazy WARM rainy weather….
However, I was encouraged when I found a hyacinth still in bud farther afield. Or a-yard.

I made a tactical error in not getting out before about 11am. Instead, the precip rolled in and I eventually dug out the ol’ rain shoes and rain coat and suited up and headed out.
I found sogginess. Soggy moss. Soggy daffodils.
Wasn’t that bad, however.
Yet, about 5:30pm, when I took some gray-bidge out, hmm, sure seemed cold. And, as I scooted back indoors, I was sooooo glad I walked earlier.

I liked the shadows, and the shapes of the leaves/vegetation that made them, juxtaposed with the warm browns of the wall stone.
For those craving flowers, here’s a deciduous magnolia…
…and forsythia—outdoor forsythia, somehow mixed with a holly. Seem to be strange phyto-bedfellows to me.

By the time I left the house, the rain had stopped.
Evidence of it was everywhere, however.
Although the chair I couldn’t quite figure out. Was it out for trash pickup?
The green theme just happened.
