It’s Feb. 26th and there are daffodils blooming on several rotaries on Nantucket! This winter is truly bizarre. Now Nantucket is known for its Daffodil Weekend but that is two months away!
As I rode from Nantucket Center to the Surfside Road, I had to do a double take. Yes, there were about a dozen perky yellow blooms standing strong against that crazy wind… Unfortunately, I couldn’t stop the car photograph them. If any reader is on Nantucket, can you send a photo? Many thanks.
And Daffodil Weekend is April 27 -29, 2012. For more info, go to http://www.nantucketchamber.org/enjoy/daffodil_festival_weekend.aspx
