Some Thoughts/ February's Leaving

Some snowy feathers, as the snow begins it's retreat from my deck.




As February winds down and March knocks on the door with a wonderful day approaching, the first day of Spring I thought I'd post a few photos of February closing.

A stream I often fish, locked in snow and ice its wild residents hunkered down dodgeing slushy ice flows, looking foward to skunk cabbage sprouts along its banks, and perhaps a mayfly nymph moving towards the surface.

A bowl of firey hot homemade chili, with warm cornbread.

Moxie, a drink I've enjoyed since I was a kid. I don't think many of you have tried it, but if given the chance, please do. It's a fine beverage to neutralize the heat of the chili

Grilled cheese, thats comfort

And a streamer I designed to comemorate the World Baseball Classic, team USA, 2009. Looking at it and knowing that playball will be heard soon is enough to warm this New Englander.
