Trying to see the positives in life

I spent some time this morning spraying the courtyard with a product that, over time, removes all the mildew etc in pavers. Unfortunately it is unlikely to remove the tannin stains. Normally I wouldn't spray until the warmer weather arrives  but, having pressure cleaned the courtyard yesterday, I thought I should apply the spray now. I covered the garden beds with sheets and as I removed them I was struck by how many signs of spring are emerging. Amidst the ever worsening covid situation here, it seems a good idea to see the positives in life.
