Earth Day, 8:20 AM -2'C Looking for Spring

I went to look for spring. The last traces of winter are fast disappearing but this morning the mud track, clacking hard under my rubber boots, held yesterday's footprints like fossils in stone. Ice still covers the Takhini River. On the way back though I noticed the dirt starting to shine with wetness under the sun and I found the signs I was looking for.

This afternoon I'll check and see what's happened.
