In Ottawa, Spring is a cool couple of days in mid-April.
Last week we had snow. Today it’s 28C. One tulip is about to bloom in my front garden. It’s alone in the patch, the reluctant scout not sure it’s the right time to assert the colours. Maybe it’s afraid of being first, of getting picked, or of being frozen in the inevitable weather rebound.
This is the capital of Canada, after all.
