Green is back! Not the full verdant mantle across the tree tops but a yellow-green lightening the fields from one end of the county to the other, heralding a return of the living to our Winter-long monochromatic landscape. Snow Geese have returned from their southern haunts, along with their friends the Dabbling Ducks, flocks of Red-breasted Robins too, cocking their heads from side to side on the ready for any worm to show its soft body under the softening earth. I can’t imagine better news to share.

What April Brings
Snow, snow and more snow… this seems to be the first of April’s gifts if in fact one views snow this time of year as a gift. I can’t complain at all really, for snow has been sparse this past winter, and a day tending the wood stove an easy occupation instead of my daily routine. As of now we still have power [she knocks on wood] so we are happy.
One Day in the Life
The very best part of winter is the ease with which one can witness a sunrise. Without waking too early one can catch the brilliance of pink shooting across the horizon. I’m a big fan of an easy celebratory vantage, but an explosive dawn right out my east-facing window takes the prize every time. Sure, it’s cold, bone-chillin cold, but that sky is on fire and in that one moment I am fueled to face the day, with all that it might bring.
