Signs of Spring
Once in a while, I ponder what it would be like to live in the tropics,
where I could grow fresh food year round. At other times, I
marvel over the deep snow of the north. But the truth is that I
adore our seasons so much that I couldn't live anywhere else for long.
Yes, this is another spring adoration post. Trilling toads in the
night! Tulip-trees just starting to put out yellow-green
leaves. White dashes of serviceberry and pink patches of redbud
on the hillside. Dogwood flowers unfurling outside our
window. And the hillsides alive with the sound...er, color...of
trilliums.
