Ode to a Spring Weekend

spring sprung
for now
hiking at Highpoint
warm temps and sunny skies
feel the last flakes of snow under our feet


picnic by the lake


soak up the sun
pup seeks shade


amazing views


feel lucky

convertible weather
late afternoon


top down
sip a latte by the lake in our little town


feel content

spring cleaning begun
dead leaves collected


windows wide open
curtains blowing
feel the fresh air

convertible once more
country roads
Rita's Italian Ice


Do you have Ritas?
feel sorry for you

longer days
later sunsets
chops on the grill
seasons go round


feel thankful

  1. Sounds like a good weekend to me. We are in Chicago. Cold here, but at least the sun has decided to come out.

    Do you know I've never had an Italian Ice? Hmmm . . . I think it might be best just in case I like them!
    Have a wonderful, springy week!
