We woke this beautiful Easter Sunday to the sound of snow plows again.. Lit another fire and blew on our hands to warm up. By mid day it was a pretty temperate 35 degrees.. We decided to take a hike .. Yesterday we had to rethink  our first two hiking destinations  because of axel deep mud.. today we tried another place..

Hey.. Hope springs eternal.. or maybe it’s Spring hopes eternal ?

After 20 min of trying to climb on sheer ice covered by last nights snow.. We would have been better in crampons.. maybe even ice skates.. we backed down … chastened but not beaten…. we took the dogs home and went for a 4 mile run instead. By then we were just in sweatshirts.. The sky was blue with white puffy clouds, there was a stiff wind.. but it was beutiful. The spring sunshine crept into my bones …

Both Peach and Easter are about rebirth .. and it’s no coincidence that they both come at the beginning of spring.. and remind us that warmth, light and abundance are coming .. I’m ready !

nite all, nite sam
