We are just beginning to see the daffodils peek above the grass. Spring comes early in Louisiana, too. But we don't have a festival for new plants, just Mardi Gras. And that's a whole different idea.

Artist Reply: Good morning to myself :-) Glad you enjoy my photo ,Dee. Israel rarely have snow in Winter...Only very few parts of Israel has snow, and not every year. Where I live...we can have snow once in 50 years for 1-2 days :-)...Truly most snow that I see is in photography, or movies...And, since I'm not used to snow...although if i was visiting other parts of Israel in snow..I truly suffered the cold weather :-)...I know where you live it's much much colder weather..I admire you for be able to enjoy and live in such cold weather...though you have a REAL Winter :-) with it's exciting sights. We're just starting a new day...and so I must go wake my kids that are still sleeping for school ...Good night to you...my love and prayers are send for you and David...sweet dreams, my friend and wake up to a most beautiful delightful day... HUGS, Nira xxxxxxx :-)
