Sunday of the fifth week of Lent

Two more weeks to Easter - and as you can see, we have a spring snow. Fortunately for us, the band of heavy snow (7 inches or more) missed us, and we have mostly a coating of slush. I didn't know the forsythia were in bloom until I went out to look around. Dave told me that forsythia were commonly used as funeral flowers in the past because they bloom so early - if the ground was thawed enough to dig a grave, the forsythia was likely to be in bloom.
