Forgot the camera last week when we went walking so I brought it this time. The spring beauties are blooming along with skunk cabbage and the spice bush. Things are growing at an amazing clip with all of the record warmth we have had this late winter and early spring.

From the bridge on the O'Loughlin trail, all of the spring's rain has turned into a lush landscape.

Lots to look at on the trails yesterday. All of the water has made this spring's growth very lush. We saw many snails on skunk cabbage leaves.

Violets of Guppy

A great day for viewing the violets growing along the Guppy Farm Trail.

Spring is slowly unraveling the green.

The greens of spring: moss and wild leeks.

The first flowers of the spring are surrounded by lots of mud! If you go walking beware of the mud although it should not deter you!
