surprise

This morning, because the sun was shining and because it needs to be done, I decided to tackle the job of picking up the bazillion sticks that are lying in the yard.

What I did not expect to see was. . .

 daffodils

 tulips

and iris!

I was worried that the winter had been so cold it would damage all the spring bulbs. 

 It's just a happy sight!
