Looking Up

Each year about this time, we are bound to get some beautifully sunny days.  Blue skies with some puffy white clouds -- if there wasn't still tons of snow on the ground, I would love it even more.  On a day like today, when my outdoor thermometer reads about 50 (a heat wave for sure!) I like to grab my camera and look up.  There's a reason my neighborhood is called Birchwood.


Then I turn a bit to my left and look up again.


Now I look down and find a cranberry bush with some new growth, but still  hanging on to last season's shriveled berries.


These are sure signs that spring will indeed arrive sometime soon.

  3. Beautiful signs indeed! There is a 10' high (at least!) pile of snow in the drive down here in Girdwood BUT popping from the top of the pile there are branches of Pussy Willows in bloom!!
