Having Faith!

Ah, springtime in Paris, oops I mean Vermont. Well as I type this, just two weeks from the spring equinox, the ground is covered with alot of crunchy snow and the wind is howling at 40 mph! Doesn't feel like spring when you run down the road in the morning with the dog for her morning ritual dressed in layers, all hunkered down. But, the birds are singing their springtime songs and the days are longer and it feels like it is getting closer. Once the snow melts we make daily walks around the grounds to see what bulbs are emerging from the ground. It makes the planting in October all worthwhile!
We look forward to the warming days, the first spring bulbs to bloom (We have planted hundreds every year for the past five years!), the leaves and flowering trees to open and of course the nightly serenade of the peepers and bull frogs in the pond next door. We hope to welcome you to the Meadowlark Inn to experience the beauty of springtime in Vermont! But for now it is still a winter wonderland around here.
