I have been up north this past weekend and it is amazing how the seasons change.  One minute it is freezing outside and there doesn’t seem to be any reprieve in sight from the snow we have received this year.  And now as I sit here typing this, I can see the leaves beginning to bloom, the birds are out singing their songs and of course the Spring wouldn’t be complete without the black flies.  There is not a cloud in the sky and it is the color of the lightest blue.  As I was driving up, I also noticed all the Trilliums that have pushed their way out of the mud and grime that has covered the area.  A dappling of white in a sea of brown.

Leaving the city, I also noticed all the people who are out walking and jogging and enjoying the sun.  It is as if we were the flowers trying to push our way through the mud to get a taste of sunshine.  I find Spring weather is ideal for taking walks, picnics, riding or any number of activities that have been hibernating along with us.  As with the birds who are so colorful, with their yellows, reds and greens, so are we with the colors of Spring and soon to be Summer.
