She is such a tease

Spring has been slow in coming to Shelby County, slower than I'd like. The trees have yet to bud out, the fields are still a dull brown. The garden a muddy mess.

This morning I woke up to gray skies and a 100 percent chance of rain. To cheer myself, and to remind myself that Spring will surely come -- she is just being a tease -- I combed through some photos I took last week. I thought I'd share them with you.
