Spring!

Wood ducks have returned!

Mallards squawk their loud presence

Sleek mergansers dive ...

Pedestals

Pedestals of ice

Decorate my melting cove

Different each day

Empty Spaces

Our house is looking so empty as we take down pictures, coathooks and wallmounts, and remove scatter rugs.

 Without posters and pictures, spaces echo if you sneeze!

Our living room has become so much bigger without all the trimmings and decor.

And gosh, am I tired of opening paint cans and cleaning up after the seemingly continual 'touch ups'.

and all the while, the days are slipping by ...
