The Woods in Spring

If winter was any longer, I think I'd just roll over and die.
The light, the warmth, the color - This is what I have been needing. As soon as school is out, the yearbook is sent to the printers, my daughter's graduation party is past, and my niece's wedding is accomplished, I can feel like a human being again.
At least until September.

The dreaded frost made its appearance on Wednesday morning. Last year a hard frost in May was a disaster for the fruit crop around here.

This year a few blossoms were browned, but most survived. Hopefully there will be fruit.

A lovely walk in the woods after work today. Cally and Lucy went with me.
It's finally beginning to feel like spring.
