Searching for Spring on Snowshoes!

………a short tale…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Tiptoeing through the tulips in my Easter bonnet on April 2, 2017

Snow is not unusual for us in April; however, this amount is ridiculous!  It feels as if  it has been snowing forever, and we won’t even talk about the winds!

Yesterday we had a bit of a reprieve and decided to go snowshoeing, it was beautiful.

“Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of autumn.” John Muir 

Thankfully we found the Easter bunny’s tracks!

I was in awe of the grey hues in the sky. I have been looking for a grey paint and wished that I could take a sample. Bight Frost?  Cold Mist of April? Wild  Bight Grey? Wouldn’t it be delightful to see these colour samples in paint stores!

“Movement is a medicine for creating change in a person’s physical, emotional, and mental states.”  Carol Welch

Do you see him? My husband did.

Twillingate may have Queen Victoria’s profile  in a cliff outcrop but Comfort Cove has Sir Franklin!  Did he just blow in with the storm…. or?………. quite refined, wouldn’t you say?

“Is there life before death?” Jon Kabat Zinn………………………for sure, just make it!

Here’s to winter in spring! May it not last too much longer.
