The End of Winter …

Finally, the winter that would not quit is over. The last 3 days have been picture perfect, except the biting flies came out today. The grasses have turned brown, already, and the campers have filled the campgrounds, spilling into and up the hills. Campfires are seen throughout the hills, and guns are blasting, once again. My quiet time has ended, and I am grateful it lasted as long as it did.

I have changed my links from El Niño to 2010 Fire Season, as it will be here in no time with the hot weather and dry grass. It has already begun in So. Cal., but fortunately, the fires are being picked up rapidly and contained in short order.

The grass was green, 2 weeks ago!

Let’s have a safe fire season this year – for all of us. Namasté

  1. Such a beautiful landscape with a huge view, Kate! Brings to mind that sot in “Sound of Music” where Julie Andrews takes the kids on a picnic in the mountains.
