Frosty Morning Revelation


My walk in the frosty morning revealed that Spring is really happening...
and here we rejoice in even the smallest of steps.

Leaf buds on my Flame Maple

Autumn seeds of Flame Maple greeting swelling Spring buds
 
A delicate reminder of the past and a hope for the future.

  4. We have another week of cold temps, but they say we could get back into the 70s by the weekend. I hope the highs continue to be above 60 after that.

    I hope your spring warms up soon, too.
