Is it March that comes in like a lion and out like a lamb? I can’t remember. But if the end of this month is any indication, we’re on our way!

Sunshine and tulips to round out the week. See ya, March :)

A rather uneventful week, really. My girl has been sick, Spring apparently arrived (somewhere) and each day has brought more snow. But all of that snow sure has been pretty and I honestly haven’t minded it. Seems a bit of a final gift from Old Man Winter, really. Hopefully a final gift. Right, Old Man? Here then, a bit of my week such as it was (is!) …

This last photo, today – finally! Some sunshine! Those clouds on the horizon have since moved in, but they’re staying light and fluffy and oh so gorgeous.

Hello Spring! Please stick around for a little while? Pretty please? :)

This house stops me in my tracks. It looks so quaint and welcoming, surrounded by it’s pines and birch trees. What you don’t see in this photo is the beautiful barn and two outbuildings over to the left, and the empty fields that once held a full herd of cows. The front door is boarded up and a chain link fence spans the front road entrance, with a sign declaring No Trespassing. I’m not sure what’s happened here. There is no for sale sign. Yet. And you can bet I’d snap this picture perfect homestead up in an instant – if I won the lottery tomorrow. This home calls to me.

This month has been pretty dreary and snow-filled, but the past couple of days have been gorgeously sunny (but omg cold) and you can almost sense Spring in the air. Almost.

And today, it’s that time of year again. When all the world is Irish and luck is in the air.

And beer isn’t the only thing that’s green (how y’all feeling today? hehee). Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Yes, behind and catching up. Again! You see, the problem is I have this new blog layout in my head. This totally awesome design that I see in front of me, in my head, and yet I haven’t had time to sit down and try to actually get it on.the.screen. Problems! So, typical me, I’ve been suffering a distinct lack of interest in my little space here. I want the new and improved space and I want it now, dammit :D

Designer problems. Like the mechanic’s wife, my blog is always the last to be fixed. I should just hire somebody. heh.

Anyways … totally long, photo-intensive post ahead. Buckle up …

March has been pretty beautiful so far.

don’t fence me in

I remember this fence was one of the very first scenes I photographed way back at the beginning of my first 365 in 2010 (if you click over to look, be reassured that no, you do not need glasses – it really is just that blurry LOL)

It’s so interesting to see how much I’ve improved, even with a simple iPhone photo. So much better. It makes me wonder what I’ll think of my photography in another two years from now. What will my future self be up to?

Apparently my present day self is into building mini-snowmen …

He needs a nose, poor dude. I wasn’t prepared :D But I WAS loving the weather on this day. Big fluffy snowflakes falling and mild enough to be outside and enjoy it. My kind of winter day.

And that, my friends, wraps up February 2013.
