With the depth of snow and cold, I thought that we needed something to look forward to. I decided to check my archive on WordPress and found these gems from my yard. Take a close look at the lilacs, and you can just smell the aroma. Within 6 weeks the crocuses should start to push their heads through to the surface and begin blooming followed by tulips and all of the other perennials.
Some of these things were planted by me. Others were planted by the generations that lived here before me. In the effort to beautify Wausau’s near west side neighborhoods, I think I am ahead of the game.
The temperatures are sub-zero today and I had hopes to do some snowshoeing and move a little further along on the photography for “Faith In the Heartland” which is something that I really want to put together. However, I needed to help people become a little more optimistic for the season to change. This is after all Wisconsin and not the arctic.
All of the photographs that I use in my blogs are high-resolution and would make quality enlargements. So, if you really love them and have walls to decorate, e-mail me at andrewplath@frontier.com and I will see what we can do. I have a PhotoShelter site too.
