Beautiful Mud

Well, maybe it's not beautiful, but I'm so happy to have some.
It means the snow is melting, if only for a day or so.
 The past couple of days it's been above freezing during the daylight hours.
 I was busy doing laundry and I noticed Jack looking out the window at the sunshine.
 He hasn't had many walks recently and I know he doesn't mind the mud.
 So, off we went. Walking in the mud under the pretty blue sky.
 Saw some fungi lying on the ice. Most things are still buried under snow.
 Even though this is a weed of some sort, it gave me hope that Spring will be here soon.
 This piece of fungus was our found treasure for todays walk.
 Once it's dry I'll tuck it into my journal.
I hope you had some sunshine and warmer temps wherever you are today.

  1. Ooh, I just love turkey tail mushrooms. We have thousands in our little forest, and I'm always happy to bring a couple home. After they dry out and harden, I spray them lightly with a satin finish polyurethane. They look great in natural craft or decor pieces, especially with twigs, and they can even be carefully drilled to allow for hanging from a cord. Here's to the promise of Spring!
