May 1st, often called May Day, just might have more holidays than any other day of the year. It’s a celebration of Spring. It’s a day of political protests. It’s a neopagan festival, a saint’s feast day, and a day for organized labor. In many countries, it is a national holiday.
There are many traditions for May Day, depending on what country one is in, including the May Pole and in some parts of the United States, May Baskets are made. These are small baskets usually filled with flowers or treats and left at someone’s doorstep. The giver rings the bell and runs away. The person receiving the basket tries to catch the fleeing giver. If they catch the person, a kiss is exchanged.
Well this year, the May Baskets would be filled with treats and no flowers as this one stem is the only flower I found blooming at my place this morning.

I think that picture is pretty awesome if you found that today. Better then looking at the snow we have.
