...and it looks like it is warming up nicely there...with all of the glorious signs of spring popping up in your corner of the world.

Thanks for the lovely pictures , it made me feel so warm inside, that it reminds me that the cold will soon be over, and i can soon enjoy the things i enjoy, like picking berries, and sitting on my porch with a glass of tea or lemonade, and watch all the wild birds i like to feed, I will be enjoying my Sunday with family for grandaughters 5th birthday party. Enjoy your day!

Beautiful photos thanks Kim. I'm sure the hints of spring are starting to appear in the northern hemisphere just as I felt a tinge of autumn in the air yesterday. The nights are getting cooler and the sun is slowly moving northwards. I watch how far the shadow of the house falls across the garden around midday and it certainly is lengthening. I'm looking forward to all the lovely sights of spring to come on your blog :)

What lovely pictures! Surely as it has each year for eons, spring is coming!
I've noticed the gradually lengthening days and the movement of the sun across the horizon. Spring is coming!
Hugs!

Your pictures are so lovely. They mean quite a lot. Although my doctor released me (from having surgery) she wants me to limit going out into public because of the flu epidemic. I miss church. I can't wait until March when I can go back! Another lovely post, Kim. Thanks so much!

Those pictures are beautiful! Here in Mass we are 10 ft deep in snow and ice. Things just look ugly, roofs are leaking and it's impossible to walk the pup with all this ice on the ground. I can't wait till Spring!

Oh Kim, what a beautiful post. I love that you appreciate the beauty that God has given us. He is definitely in the details! My favorite is your shot of the ducks from behind. There's something so cute about those feathered bottoms :). I'm looking forward to spring's arrival in Pennsylvania. I can't wait to get out there with my camera. Have a lovely and restful Sunday. Hugs, Terri

I finally made it to Florida after years of avoiding it due to a notion I got in the 4th Grade. I loved it..spent a day on Hollywood Beach walking and enjoying the warm sunshine. It is thanks to you and your style that I finally wanted to experience your state. Now I am hoping to come back and explore, maybe next year.
Thanks Kim for opening my eyes up to The Sunshine State :-)
