Wonderful signs Spring has sprung~ Spring's graceful arrival means lovely fashion trends, art, jewelry and accessories. All of these evoke the seasonal pull of color.  I thought  I would share some finds; check'em out~.

Our cherry blossoms are getting ready to open, but havent yet. Daffodils and smaller things, like crocus are poking up. What I am loving is the daylight in the early evening, the milder temperature and, tonight, when I went to put the horse in the barn, the smell of smoke on the air - my neighbor was burning something in his burn barrel. Love that smokey smell.

So much to love, in being alive - so much to fear from nuclear reactors. Sigh. Have to apreciate what is, while it still Is.

A sure sign spring is on the way.
