I usually refrain from buying too many plants and flowers since they will most likely die in my care, but I couldn't resist bringing home this tulip plant. And surprise - it's not only still alive but blooming, with more buds about to open!

Baseball's Spring Training is in full force around Florida. I actually like going to these games better than regular season ones. The Port Charlotte field where the Tampa Bay Rays play is so open and fun and fan-friendly. Look how close we are to the players! So many of them - Ben Zobrist, above - take the time to stop and sign autographs for fans.

Have you seen signs of spring in your neck of the woods yet? What are you most looking forward to as the warmer weather arrives?
