Jonquils, forsythia buds, spring music

1. I drove by fields and fields of jonquils today on the way to and from work. Breath-taking!
   
   
2. As I was walking into work about 11:00, I noticed that the forsythia bushes were starting to bud. By the time I left campus at about 4:00 (test days are longer days), the buds were already showing yellow. I think if I had stayed to watch, I could have seen the buds actually opening up.
   
   
3. The mood on campus was different today. People were outside, and you could hear singing everywhere. It finally felt like spring was really here, and the mood was really contagious.
