Walk to Wonderwood Park

No sewing happening, but lots of fun genealogy and visiting with family, so all is good!

Currently, I am blessed to be on the west side of my state visiting with my son and his fam. Double blessed, since Spring is happening here, and it is still snowing on my side of the state.

So I took my new camera out for a walk to Wonderwood Park and recorded the greening of the land!

Those that aren’t experiencing Spring, but are longing for it (It is coming!), please enjoy the blooms, the greens, and the textures through these photos!

I believe in process. I believe in four seasons. I believe that winter’s tough, but spring’s coming. I believe that there’s a growing season. And I think that you realize that in life, you grow. You get better. -Steve Southerland

The spring wakes us, nurtures us and revitalizes us. How often does your spring come? If you are a prisoner of the calendar, it comes once a year. If you are creating authentic power, it comes frequently, or very frequently. -Gary Zukav

Don’t wait for someone to bring you flowers. Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul. -Luther Burbank
