    The sun glints off periwinkle leaves in the yard where snow has just melted. All sounds come from a great distance: crow, woodpecker, train.

      Blue sky. The snow has retreated to the northwest-facing hillside under the shelter of the trees. A train's whistle made wavery by the wind.

          I just installed winPenPack on my USB 'Nerd-on-a-stick' -*much* nicer than PortableApps + good docs on how to make any app portable!

            ...it's also easy to install in a subdir, even on a USB stick, so all my portable Mac programs will stay available as well. ...

            @march great, thanks - bookmarked. I'm *very* busy right now, and with XMPP I could still keep half an eye on what's happening...

          Sleet rattles on the roof like a fast typist. Two deer in the springhouse meadow: when they stop moving, they vanish into the brown weeds.

              Out before dawn, I hear nothing but the drip of melting snow, gaze at a photographic-negative version of the woods: light ground, black sky.

                    This morning it's the titmouse's turn to sing his spring song--an ode to tedium. I'm grateful when it's drowned out by a mob of crows.

                      The wistful two notes of the chickadee's spring song. The gray clouds begin to turn pink. A rabbit dashes into the lilac when I stand up.

                        The wind moves snow back and forth across the ground like a restless sculptor. Trees creak and groan: a regular machinery of discontent.

                          Snow in progress: curtains that fall and fall until they become the show itself. A nuthatch like a prompter--its anxious calls.

                            This snow makes it so much easier to keep track of squirrels, their mad chases on the ground, through the trees--showers of white dust.

                              A branch breaks at the top of an oak, clatters through the too-loose grips of lower limbs and lands in the new snow's too-shallow grave.
