A day of summer

<p>This has been "The Summer That Wasn't" here in Oregon; 60 degrees seems to be an average high! In addition, we have been spending every waking moment unpacking and putting our new house together. It is beyond wonderful, but a lot of work! </p>
<p>So, upon leaving an absolutely crazy day at work, I step outside to a beautifully warm and sunny day, flowers everywhere, and dragonflies and butterflies zipping and fluttering around. It felt like summer for a day. :-)

I hope that whatever craziness or gloom may currently exist in your world, you are able to pause for a few moments and enjoy the beauty that surrounds you - this is truly am incredible world that we are part of.

Mitakuye oyasin!

Finally Spring!

Here in the lovely Pacific Northwest, spring has been slow to give us any sunshine. While we are beginning to see a glimpse here and there, what we DO get lots of are flowers. Here are a couple I spotted on my way to work this morning; may they add a little color to your day, no matter how grey! :)
