Spring officially begins today! Hooray! The sun feels warmer and the snow has started melting. At the start of spring (spring equinox) day and night are approximately 12 hours long (at the equatorial plane) and the Sun is at the midpoint of the sky. Our north pole tilts towards the Sun. We can all let ourselves at least start thinking about our gardens! These tulips are my garden these days - I've been treating myself to a bouquet a week. Aren't they gorgeous?
