No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow. — Proverb
Putting things in perspective.
The trailhead to a 40+-acre preserve that includes a 19th century quarry, and old trolley railway, a tide gate, and boardwalk.
Crossing a wide expanse of salt marsh.
Human tracks and ski tracks criss cross those of unseen foraging spirits.
Views of the Thimble Islands in Long Island Sound.
Crossing Jarvis Creek with a view of an Osprey nest and islands.
Nooks and crannies look like winter, sound like spring.
As subtle signs of changing seasons appear on a 45˚ late winter day.

Lovely! Spring can’t come soon enough! :)
One week away!
I wish I could send you some Seattle Magnolia blossoms. It was 64 degrees on Sunday. Poor Earth.
Oh – that sounds lovely! We’re at 39 degrees today, so a little better. Spring is on the way. If it weren’t for the couple feet of snow, I thinks we’d see crocus!
