ICE OUT!

Dear Diary,

Finally, it has happened!  The ice is out of Little Clemons Pond!  The last few days have been slowed by much cooler temperatures but it was inevitable.  Spring has officially arrived.  I was also graced with a stunning springtime reflection of soft pinks and greens.  To see the pond liberated from its icy shroud is such a joy.

Today is yard cleanup day too if the rain holds off.  Things are sprouting everywhere.  It is amazing how quickly life re-emerges.  I am seeing the faint red blush of trees beginning to bud out and the forsythia bush in the yard is ready to bloom; a bit late this year.  Nature takes her time and doesn't follow our schedule preferring her own infallible inner clock.  When will we learn to simply have faith?
