The First Signs of Spring...

While those of us here in Texas cannot whine or gripe too much about the reasonably mild winters in our neck of the woods, it is always a pleasure to see the first hints that spring is getting ready to , well, spring upon us. The other day( a chilly 35 degrees F) as I was walking across campus at the school where I teach, I noticed the buds of the Bradford Pear trees were just beginning to hint at breaking their winter dormancy. As such I had to get my camera out & snapped away.... if you happen to be in a place still locked in by Old Man Winter, please accept this photo as my gift of springtime promises.....
