It has been a long, hard winter. I’m so thankful winter is almost over. I say almost, because we normally get at least 1 more snow in March. Then we have to get through all the “winters” Dogwood…
I found quite a few interesting things on my walk this week. It all started on the front porch, where I found my new favorite flower, the Zinna. Here are a few pictures. See why they’re my new favorite flower? Then I actually left the porch, lol, and found a Rose bud in the Bible…
