There's always a day or two in January when Spring seems just around the corner. Today I feel a small temperature shift across what feels like a seasonal threshold, but it's probably brought on by the slightly-too-stiff coffee I had just before I came outside.



It can't be so near, it's too early, but the sorb looks different - glossy buds, a little taut - and the akekia leaves might not be in full summer flush, but they don't look like they're expecting it to get any worse.
