Looks like spring is here in central Oklahoma. The dogwood trees started blooming two or three days ago. Many types of grasses have greened up. And today, I noticed that first hint of green on a lot of the trees. Although the skies were gray today (and despite the news of the war), my heart was lifted with the anticipation of warmer weather, green trees, and summer vacation.
As so happens, today is the official beginning of Spring, i.e. the Vernal Equinox. Hooray!
