Spring

Burgeoning buds

Lilac bush, sunflowers and Ganesh

Even though we had some fierce rain through the night and pea-soup fog this morning, we're enjoying a beautiful Spring day now with puffy, floating clouds in true blue skies. In that spirit, I thought I'd share a couple photos of the lilac bush we planted in our backyard a few years back. We're pleased to see the buds survived the recent spate of near freezing nights -- so far! (Photos taken this morning by M.E. Broderick. Click on images for larger versions.)
