On A Winter's Day

| | Comments (1)

I keep expecting my life to slow down, but it only speeds up. I know, we're all busy people, and the downside of ever expanding opportunities, goods, and services is that we are stretched thinner and thinner, like butter scraped over too much bread to borrow a phrase from Tolkien. Today we recuperated from Erin's birthday sleepover and so the rest of us went to the park with the pooch while Erin rested. The weather was quite pleasant for February in St. Louis but the scenery hasn't caught up:

Longview Farm Park

I do have color right outside my front door in the guise of snow crocus which opened their blooms for the first time today in the warmth and sunshine (although it was overcast by the time I got out and took this picture):

Blooming crocus

Trooper especially loves going for walks -- all that territory to mark and all those other dogs to sniff for. Beauty is clearly in the eye of the beholder.
