I miss green. The bitter winter has clamped on with its sharp talons, vowing to never let go. The gentle breezes and soft smells of spring seem like a lost dream. With blue skies and puffy clouds warming our skin after a long cold winter. Colorful butterflies dancing […]
The wild goose chase actually started yesterday at the wee hours of pre-dawn at five in the morning. Heading out of the house at six in order to arrive at Quarry Lake in Baltimore, Maryland before the sun rose, the thought of seeing a rare goose was better […]
