Snowdrop

And here is a snowdrop blooming in January. Someone told me about both of these flowers that are blooming in January. It has been a warm January, and less snow than last year. What will February bring?

Moving along

They even work on Saturday! Evey day there are changes to the new house, but the path in is muddy today. What is the addition that is on the right?
