People often try to hurry along the seasons, even as we are changing them. Longer days and the hint of more heat tantalize people living south of Highway 7. In our upland headwater areas, the sap is flowing but the water still freezes at night, sometimes making beautiful patterns in the ice.
Thanks to my brother David for the lovely photo, taken at Robert Edmunson Conservation Area, for which we will be posting a new Headwater Hike shortly.
