Reminders of warmer days.
Here in Georgia, the first part of March is usually still Winter. However, we can count on a Spring day to tease us. Yesterday was that day.
A walk in my gardens showed every daffodil in full bloom. The iris greenery are all at three inches high and the neighbors pink tree is in full bloom. What I know about Georgia’s weather is that today could be hard winter, Georgia style, again and it was, and I do so hate cold.
To combat the shift in mood that the weather produces on me, I have for years put out my more permanent reminders of nature’s warmer beauty. My grandson, Alex, and I have a love affair with beaches. He never has failed to bring seashells back to me after a trip to a beach. I do the same for him. Most of the time during his thirteen years we have gone to the beach together and there is always a pile started the first day.
As you walk through my gardens you will see the seashells scattered throughout with no particular rhyme or reason other than to make me smile on a cold winter Georgia day and remember a love of warm sunny beaches that my grandson and I share.
