Temporary Spring

 
There have been some small tantalizing hints of spring warmth, but it's going to come to a crashing halt tomorrow. Meanwhile, enjoy some little happy moments.

A turkey in my yard. I saw some spreading their tails yesterday, but no pictures.



The crocuses are starting to open and provide a little color.



And this little pond had peepers and chorus frogs singing!



Today was busy, busy. I finished the short story, "The Valley." I thought it wasn't going to get warm enough to paint. Then I thought it would, then I thought it wouldn't. Then I checked the thermometer and it was 52 degrees in the shade and it was only 1:30. Ha! I quick uncovered the trailer and got the prep done and the first of the topcoats on the spots I'm painting.

Then I had to clean up, do errands, go to bell choir practice, and then to writers' group. Had to cover the trailer in the dark after I got home, but it was worth it! Had time for a quick walk before bell choir on their short trail by the church.

On the Move

 
I think this big fellow was on the move in search of love, which is not my motive! Nevertheless, I'll be heading out tomorrow. I hope to be able to blog while on the road, but if it doesn't happen, I haven't forgotten you... just having trouble with finding electric or access. Southern Ohio can be spotty.



The car is cleaned and the books are packed- the important stuff, right? I have a ton of books with me, but I'd rather have too many than run out. The gear is still strewn all over the living room, but it will go in the car in the morning.



There are still too many things on my TO DO list, but I'm whittling it down.

Spring may actually be making an appearance. I dried clothes outside and found a couple of rock garden remnants giving it the old college try. I'm sad at how pathetic the rock garden is now, but I'd rather travel. I'll enjoy other people's pretty gardens.





Tomorrow night, I'll be at Ester's! Let the fun begin. I'm not sure how much writing will happen over the next two weeks, but I worked really hard from January through April, so I'm not setting any production goals till I get home. This trip is about having a good time and selling books.
