Looking for Spring?

My mother in law called on Monday just as I was out in the yard, phone in pocket, camera in hand, taking some photos of the amazing things happening in my yard. She said that in Pennsylvania, there had just been new snow and it was sleeting. Eegads... I sure felt blessed to be out in the sunshiny 70 degree weather of North Carolina and enjoying the first day of a promising spring season. And it made me realize that so many of my web friends are still in the throes of winter. So I decided to share some of those photos I took the other morning, as well as a couple from over the weekend. Hope it brings cheer and hope to those of you who still are experiencing the cold weather of winter.

And what would March be without kite-flying on a Sunday afternoon?

Here's to spring, rebirth, colors, and hope!

  5. Wow! Almost didn't recognize your new blog remodel. Very nice! Great photos! Our Texas Daffodils and Tulips are springing up all over. The old liveoak tree is sprinkling its greenish yellow "fairy dust" on everything! It's almost as magical as Autumn!
