No spring cleaning today. Mike and I took a Sunday drive on this beautiful 60° day; and when we got home, we took Gracie outside to run around and enjoy the last bit of sunshine. She ran faster than ever with tail unfurled and jutting out straight and long — such a happy sight! Mike directed my attention to the sun shining through the curling bark on our trio of River Birches, and I dashed deep within the branches looking for just the right angle for capturing the beautiful glow. I love how he takes an interest in my photography.
