Daffodils in January

     I was jogging along the river today when I spotted these daffodils blooming on the banks.  I had thought that it was too cold for these early spring flowers, but these did not seem to care what I thought.  They were a great lift for my spirits, one of the many things I have encountered on my trips to brighten my day.  I continued jogging until I had gone farther than ever before and turned back home.  It was a great restart to my morning run, I had taken a week off with Yuta on vacation from school.  Now that he is back in Yagi Minami Shogakko, I can resume my habit of running after walking Yuta to campus.  Here is a crummy picture of the daffodils.

     I thought those of you in slightly colder climes would appreciate that I am in a warmer place.  I hope you don't think I am rubbing it in, but could you please pass the salt?
