Thinking "Green-Up"

This is another image from the archives while waiting for our spring green-up on the Leelanau Peninsula.

Note: Thanks to my friend, Karen, for the term "green-up," which is used in Alaska for the period from early to mid May. Fairbanks, Alaska celebrates the end of their long winter with Green-Up Day. Sounds like a great idea! I will certainly feel like celebrating when it finally greens up here!
