Angela, I'm hearing the same thing from all over the Midwest--and, of course, other regions have their own issues.<br /><br />Sandy, I find that on the days I walk without a camera, I notice different things. I think Annie Dillard talked about the two perspective in Pilgrim at Tinker Creek. I must remember to look that up!<br /><br />Esther, I love the suggestion of looking at other seasons as well. Definitely something to put on my Consider This list!<br /><br />Jan, yes, I might have a written draft somewhere. Maybe I'll run across it if I ever finish clearing off my desk! Enjoy your azaleas & dogwoods--hoping to see them here soon!<br /><br />JoAnn Early Mackenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17812079420917080829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934041490878801751.post-65327566548686981922014-03-24T06:50:46.119-05:002014-03-24T06:50:46.119-05:00I am intrigued with the sticking the neck out poem...I am intrigued with the sticking the neck out poem. To draw those two disparate creatures into a comparison is quite the literary <br />leap. Brava! And if you are like me, you wrote it in longhand somewhere but it didn't get into the pixelated world. I hope we see it in one of your books some year.<br /><br />And the photographs! Maple sugar time. Easier parking. Such a different world from here-<br /> Garden Zone 8, where the winter camellias are near kaput, but the azaleas and dogwoods are in glory.<br /><br />I remember those winter times (New Jersey and New York State & CT days.) And in fact we just tromped thru city snow in Boston a week or so back. Thank you for the NG quality photos.jan godown anninohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00091996699597066230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934041490878801751.post-9173888200583722942014-03-22T10:20:34.537-05:002014-03-22T10:20:34.537-05:00Your words and pictures perfectly capture this pas...Your words and pictures perfectly capture this past visit by Old Man Winter to the Midwest, JoAnn.<br />It might be fun to do the same for Summer and Fall, and then use all the images in some fun way - mix-and-match, what's wrong with this pix, you-name-it.<br />Thanks for sharing.Esther Hershenhornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12016897434029543881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934041490878801751.post-74217149599362012152014-03-22T08:39:37.729-05:002014-03-22T08:39:37.729-05:00Love these images and reflections, JoAnn.

I can't say which of us enjoyed it more, but he'll certainly argue that he did.
