Spring is Bursting Out - Again!

Oh my, it is just beatiful here.  For the past few weeks, you would be hard-pressed, without a calendar, to guess what season it is.  We keep cycling through them randomly: winter, summer, spring, summer, winter, and now back to early spring. Today I went for a long walk and was in awe of the beauty of the bright green leaves bursting out against a perfectly blue, almost dark blue, sky.  If the sight had an accompanying heart-thunking noise, it would be better than fireworks.

 

The Farmers' Almanac, the National Weather Bureau, and history all agree that this will not last, which makes me love it even more. I want to soak it in.  The vegetables have benefited from the heat and rain and are growing quickly.  Our corn looks like I've heard midwestern corn should look in the summer, "knee high (by the Fourth of July)". The only thing knee high here on July 4 are the weeds that sprouted July 3. 

I'm going back outside now.
