A Spring Day


 After months of gray skies, wind and
cold temps, I am hungry for the color green.  The grass is changing from brown to emerald green and 
the soft green of new leaves brings a lightness to the air.  Spirits begin to lift and everything and everyone comes alive.  It is time to breath deeply and enjoy the clean new season of spring.


This season called spring creates a new energy--the need to get outside. Today we took  our favorite bikes, the cruisers to Blackfoot to ride the path along the river.  It was a beautiful quite morning a fresh new day with sun just waiting to be soaked up.  The trees are bursting with new growth and the river bank is still free of brush and tangled vines. A heron fly low along the bank and landed ahead of us.  We quietly searched until we found him hidden in the willows.  On a perfect spring day even the ever present dandelion shines.  Today I welcomed its bright yellow buttons and thought of it as a flower and not a weed.
