Thx Maggie. I found these pods a little tought due to the light/dark contrast but aren't they interesting! I love the shape and when I saw the bit of snow I liked the image. We have about 80% snow gone. It was so deep in my yard which has loads of sun it is taking a long time even with a day of rain on Sunday. Enjoy your Monday.
