The Inspiration of Spring

While this author was away at NorwesCon39 spring happened in her little corner of the Willamette Valley. There is a broad spread of spring colors from last winter's berries to the first pale blush of pink cherry blossoms. It really makes one want to get out and write some poetry under a tree. But this is the Pacific Northwest. There was a hard frost last night and it took a roaring fire to get rid of that lingering bite of winter. So wear those stylish knitted sweaters Norwesterners!
