Beautiful blooms are my reward for just taking a moment to pause and look up. A promise of spring.

Our two peach trees have started blooming. I think it’s too early, but they obviously think it’s time. We will probably have a few more freezes, but if they are not severe, maybe the blooms will make it through.

Pretty and pink

A view of Lake Georgetown from the trail while hiking in the Cedar Breaks Park. Lake Georgetown was built by the Army Corps of Engineers (1979).

It seems one can hike all the way around the lake, about 26 miles. I’ll postpone that hike for a while (a good, long while).

We received over five inches of rain in January. That meant lots of clouds.
