Spring has been rather reclusive in 2018, so when I went out this afternoon to drop off something at a friends house I brought my camera with me. Even though it was chilly it looked like spring, and I want some photographic proof spring had arrived ¹

I captured some typical spring photos of new buds on trees and fresh flowers, but my favorite image from the walk is below. There’s just something about the image of children’s toys and sidewalk chalk that reassure me winter is, indeed, on the way out. Good riddance!
