Pixels of spring green are starting to poke through the branches in the Forest. That means a finite wait until we can get out there to revel in the sound of the breeze through leafy boughs.
I’m not trying to wax poetic. I just really want to do this.

Next year, instead of planting the majestic beauty that is Daffodil Hill, we’re going to plant one single daffodil, and call it Daffodil Frill. Just kidding! Happy April Fool’s Day friends!
