Yesterday was very cold, with an almost bone chilling rain.

Today, the sun returned!  And it cast lovely reflections on the puddles and creeks that I passed on the way to work.  As I was running alongside the road to get these pictures, I had 2 people stop to offer help.  It must look strange to see a woman running down the side of the road in skirt and heels.  I hold my camera high so folks can see what I’m up to, but it must not be obvious enough!

As I turned around to get back in the truck, I was taken by the pretty green color of the tree lichen.

Not a bad way to start the work day!
