A fleeting glimpse of spring

Our mild winter slipped straight into summer in the blink of an eye......
.....so my friend and I set out on a beautiful Sunday afternoon to capture some pics of the quickly fading spring loveliness.....

.....the sunbathers were out......


......and the mountain bikers were on the trails.
(Actually, we would have been riding too, but my friend is recovering from elbow surgery from a mountain bike fall!....so we walked the 7 miles around the lake.)


A little log cabin and primitive fence provided some nice textural shots.


My feet still hurt, but the weather was so perfectly perfect! And these pretty sights will remind me that it was spring, even if for just a little while.....before the heat and humidity of summer starts making us captives of air conditioning. Looks like summer might be a real scorcher this year!

Our blooms seem to be going fast from some of the trees. I love the line of turtles.:):) Smiles, Susie(She Junks)
