It's Spring Break Here....

...and Spring is here.
She is here with color and rain
and wind.
She is here with wet and cold.
The woodstove chugs on and on.
The grayness, fog, and did I mention rain,
soaks us all up and lands us
in a puddle of coldness.
But, it is Spring and there is
COLOR.

And there has been wind,
wind to scare me to death!
Where to stand in the house.
Where to hide, lest a tree
fall on me.
Whew!
Wishing all a beautiful spring.
There will be lots of people here this week.
Enjoy the beauty that is unfolding.
Best to all, e.

When I see daffodils it reminds me of my grandparents' house and of Wordsworth's poem: I wandered lonely as a cloud... They are such cheerful flowers!

Ah, the colors of Spring. They are so much more dramatic in your area ... with the contrast with winter.
Down here in North Carolina it is lovely but can be a bit boring.
Happy Spring to you.

Happy Spring to you too! It will be awhile for our daffs.

Your photos are gorgeous too. Especially like that up close moss one down below - it is like a little world. Drop dead gorgeous.
Good weekend! Kristin
