Turning the corner into springtime...

Well, Groundhog Day has now come and gone.  And he predicted an early Spring.  So far he is right.  We have seen temperatures in the mid-40's here in New England.  The snow, which has been extensive this year, is finally melting.  The sun is shining a bit warmer, the days are definitely getting longer.  We are now hearing the word "rain" in our weather forecasts.  I am anxious to see the trees come back to life, but there is a little bit of a wait before that will happen!  I have, however, gone out early in the morning and seen some pretty spectacular sunrises.  Take a look and enjoy...

A chilly wind and temps down around 18 degrees did nothing to keep me from a beautiful winter's dawn...


Another morning, I was treated to a fiery display in the sky... a storm was moving in and the old sailor's saying proved true... red sky in morning, sailors take warning...


The clouds reminded me of wings spread wide ... almost like a phoenix up in the sky...
 
The sun rose up over the horizon in beautiful yellows and golds, making an appearance before the clouds took over from the impending storm... I felt so grateful that I could experience this sunrise before the rain started to fall from the sky...


Stay tuned... I will post more soon.  Smile at the little things today.  It will make your mood light and happy  :-)
