It's starting.  Spring, I mean.  Buds and blossoms and all sorts of beautiful things.  In the seeming blink of an eye, there is pink where yesterday there was none.  Likewise yellow and purple and red and green...oh the green. Slowly, and yet all of a sudden. Every year it surprises and delights. Spring has returned. … Continue reading Spring {and a little break for me}
