The color television assures us that April showers bring May flowers. 🌷🌻🌼 I'll believe it when I see it, though there are definite hints of the green up -- grass is looking greener in the city, some bushes are starting to bloom and there are signs of the days to come. Days have gotten longer, windows open and it's generally just nicer then not that long ago.

While northern Delaware is highly urbanized much of the southern portion of the state is covered with cropland mostly corn for meat chickens and dairy farming.
