Thinking Spring

With snow still on the ground, it is sometimes difficult to see the promise of spring in spite of all the signs.

And with Easter coming so early, it is difficult to see that as part of the process.  There is too much snow to see Easter, but I felt I needed to get a start on it on it.  Even with only one week to March 31, I got out the Easter decorations this week. 

I put clings on the windows, pictures of happy Easter bunnies. I hung the Easter banner on the honeysuckle bush, then began to add the colored plastic eggs.


The bush was pretty much covered with eggs and I still had plenty left.  Then I realized that last summer Gary trimmed the lilac bushes.  I usually hung eggs there, too, but the bush hasn't grown enough to do that. Next year.  

Now there is snow but the pastel eggs bring a little color to my world, enough to hold me until lilac time.

Tonight is the Earth Hour so tonight at 8:30 pm all the lights and electrical appliances will be turned off.
Not a major change but I like to make a statement with the millions of others around the world.
