red, white and blue

 gotta love these guys -

they brighten up even the wintery of days...

 Sweet bird!  Thy bow'r is ever green,

thy sky is ever clear;

thou has no sorrow in thy song,

no winter in thy year.

John Logan

 February is merely as long as is needed

to pass the time until March.

JR Stockton

 In the depths of winter

I finally learned that within me

there lay an invincible summer.

Albert Camus

That's it for the winter projects -

on to spring I hope.
