Springing Along

I'm so enjoying the continuation of Spring. I could wish for temperatures more suitable for late March/early April, but it's still a wonderful thing to experience. The colors of the leafing trees and the flowers, and the scents of their perfumes on the air; the smell of wet earth; the sounds of the birds and the little frogs and the thunder in the skies. Love, love, love.

Up in its branches, it's definitely Spring!

'Tis the season already of watching the weather and staying in tune, with a bit of concern. We who live in this area know all too well the possibilities, though we generally go about our business as usual without dwelling on them.

We had storms in the area last night, and not as close tonight. Some clouds from sunset two nights ago:

And so, we watch and wait. We're used to it.
