Spring Happenings

I woke in the early hours to the occasional sound of rain showers on the roof.  By the time I rose, the rain had stopped.  I went out for a short run.  The morning was very springlike.  Temperature in the 50s, and high humidity, so it felt warmer.  Quite a few people were out on the trail.

When I finished my run at the top of the street and turned to walk back to the house, I saw a few water droplets hanging from small tree branches, and noticed that each one was a little lens, showing a miniature view of upside down tree branches.

I worked at home until 11:30, then walked to work.  The droplets were gone - fallen off or dried up.  Walking through the path between Dale and Highland Drives, I passed six deer foraging right beside the trail.  I walked slowly and talked quietly to them.  They watched warily, but didn't startle off.
