The fish in happier times/
Winter has five days to shape up and go home. The Vernal Equinox is on Friday, March 20. Perhaps Winter will take the hint and leave. Although, going through photos of past winters I would say that winter being well and truly gone is a shaky proposition.
Proge very sadly discovered yesterday that all our goldfish have died. We are assuming it is because the two and a half feet of snow blocked any oxygen getting into the pond. We will replace them when it warms up. But sentimentally we miss them because they were all decendents of two dollars woth of fingerlings I bought was back when we first put the pond in. They were meant to be short term experiment to see how fish would do. Instead we became quite attached to them and their babies.
A few days ago I started my second reading of Shakespeare's sonnets. Today Sonnet Five feels particularly appropriate.
Stay strong and , as always, thanks for stopping by.................*s*
