Took a walk today to Whole Foods for lunch.
Spotted these skunk cabbage leaves sprouting from the wetlands along the trail.
The floor of the woods is greening and the wild daffodils or maybe escapees are blooming under the bare trees.
Some of the trees along this pathway are tagged with numbers. They are likely ash trees that are marked for removal because of the emerald ash borer which has afflicted all the ash trees in the area.
No sun today nor rain, just a cloud cover with mild temperatures.
I'm heading to Arizona on Monday to enjoy some warmer weather. I have some posts in the queue for while I'm gone.
Hope your keeping up on Pete Buttigieg.
Here's a great article in the New Republic about Mayor Pete.
