I am protesting Winter today! I refuse to let another gray dreary Sunday chill me to the bone. I revisited a folder of tulips I took last April 7th...just as the first days of early Spring began to show itself in the Midwest last year. This tulip had just begun to open and drink in the warmth of the renewing season.

I am going to keep the memory of the warmth of that early April day with me today as I look out the window and still see nothing but the faded browns and melting snow of a season in it's last gasps of breath. This year...it is good riddance and Spring will be the most welcome visitor I have greeted in a long while.

Have a great "Faux Spring" Sunday.
