It’s not easy to see green
We’ve had such mild winters lately. Even this year with the 2 weeks of below zero blast was “moderate” compared to winters in the 80’s and earlier. Now, with the dumping of snow this weekend it looks like early winter, not almost spring. And they’re predicting another series of storms between Wednesday and Saturday resulting in up to 8- 14 inches of snow.
It is Minnesota, after all . We get snow in the winter. Even so, that’s a lot of snow.
Many of us know how to drive in it (although fewer than before. I saw many people thinking that just tromping on the accelerator would get them out of the ditch. Saps.) Most of us have “the right clothes.” And it’s February. Not November. No matter how bad it gets, there’s not going to be 2 feet of snow on the ground in six weeks. It’s just not going to happen.
And yet, I’m still hungry for green. Famished for the smell of fecund earth. Starving for the sight of bud and blade.
Any recommendations of movies that have good visions of the green good earth? Maybe a two-dimensional representation would help.

Hey there, Kermit.
How about watching “Lost?”
Verrrrry tropical. It’s all I could think of.
