First Flush Of Spring

Weeping willows are lovely trees. They are the last to lose their leaves in autumn and the first to green up in spring. This willow beside the lake at the Taylor Dam is looking lovely and fresh. I and the dog had a brief walk there this morning.
The flu-like virus I have had over the last few days has hit me hard tonight. I am zapped. A hot shower, baby powder, a hot water bottle, cup of tea and early to bed has been the only way to go this evening.
