walk with me ?

wednesday

was warm

so i grabbed my sweet friend diana

and

took her to the zoo

most of the animals were still inside

but

the flamingos entertained us

then i took her to one of my favorite new places to walk

most of the trails

were still snow covered

and

our feet got wet and muddy

but

at this time of year

mud doesn't bother me

~much~

the birds

filled the trees with song

and

didn't seem to mind at all that we stopped to listen

the brilliantly green watercress

danced on the riverbeds

for us

while the snow in the background reminded us

that technically

spring doesn't begin until sunday

shhhh

don't tell mother nature she gave us a gift by letting spring visit early

~she might take it back~

happy weekend
