It's springtime, I don't care what the calendar says.
The oaks are neon chartreuse with new leaves and flowers, leaving a thin yellow film on everything in their enthusiasm to reproduce. (It's kind of.. ech. Also not awesome for allergies. But so pretty!) The weather is AWESOME, that perfect blend of breezy balmy days and cool nights (as opposed to hot sticky everything, as it will be in July). Ternaldo still has that attitude. As you can see.

I very much feel like a swelling seed, heady with possibilities and the anticipation of bursting forth. There is so much I want to do. My mind turns to homesteading, sustainability, growth and transformation. I want the richness of good earth and green growing things, whole healthy local foods, peace of mind and heart and home. I want to build things and craft things and make everything beautiful. Springtime does this to me.
