April Fields, Rupert, VT

April 14, 2019

I was struck with the flaxen hues of many of the mown fields throughout southern VT last week, a color no doubt enhanced by the light rain that was falling throughout most of our trip. “Looks cold and bleak..”, says a friend from GA, where they are currently reveling in camelias and azaleas. If I was looking at this scene in November, with four or five months of winter to come, I might have agreed. But now, here in April, this scene is positively summer-ish, a prelude of the warmth to come.

Yeah, and I’ll bet those well-mown fields will be covered with snow more than once before Spring returns her verdant touch to the landscape. 🙂

All of Georgia looks like the Augusta National Golf course right now. Reveling, indeed!
(just watch out for the tornadoes)

Nice shot. I remember those teasing days of promise from years in the Kingdom, myself.

Ha! Well last night they did pick up some snow in that area, but the next fifteen days look pretty warm.
