Yesterday I was hunkered down in my Studio, working on a writing assignment for my former employer. She's building a new website for her company and asked if I'd write the copy.
It's a good thing t

Between the variable weather and my concentrated writing efforts, I didn't get out for a walk. But give it a day and the weather changes.
Today was partly cloudy and a bit blustery. I finished first draft of the writing assignment, then took a break for my walk.
The hail and snow were great for the early flowering plants! They are budding out all over.
So the photo above is Lilac Bud [2]. When I took the photo for Day 264, I received a request for updates as the lilacs start to bloom. This is what a month gets you.

I found the sweet tiny flowers in a neighbor's yard, right by the curb. I wasn't sure of the flower's name, so tried to find it on the web. Hope I got it right. None of the other photos that I saw had the blue veining that these gems do.
I love the Springs in north Idaho and the promise of hope that the flowers represent!

I love your spring pictures. We're getting hit with a late snow storm, so its nice to know its springtime somewhere!
not Glory of the Snow but "Puschkinia scilloides." I spent all morning looking for the right name too.
