Glorious spring snow!


The snow on the lakes is melting down to ice.  The snow in the woods has a crust that enables the forest creatures to scamper about playfully.  (This includes HMN...  until a weak spot is found and she must extricate herself from the knee deep hole and carefully swim back to a stable crust.)  The snow on the house roof is quickly disappearing, and sprinkles of sunflower seed shells adorn the yard.  A welcome gift on this first day of spring is the gentle snowfall that gives a temporary covering to it all...

I do hope the use of "swim" is figurative, not literal, and that you are not cracking through the icy lake! :)

what glorious photos
