حالیا معجزه باران را باور کن
و سخاوت را در چشم چمنزار ببین
و محبت را در روح نسیم
که در این کوچه تنگ
با همین دست تهی
روز میلاد اقاقی ها را
جشن میگیرد
خاک جان یافته است
تو چرا سنگ شدی
تو چرا اینهمه دلتنگ شدی
باز کن پنجره ها را
و بهاران را
باور کن

On Sunday I made the off trail hike deep into one of the Columbia River Gorge's most amazing spots, this time trudging up the creek the whole way. The recent run of warm days has left the Gorge exploding in green. Such an awesome time to be out there! I also lucked out with gentle winds which helped freeze the foliage, something I contended with last year at this spot.
With the exception of one cold week in January, I think that winter has skipped us this year. On to springtime:)
The first flowering Daffodil I have seen this year.

Well, at least on the eastern shore of Maryland. These buds were right outside our car as we parked in Berlin, Maryland. That is a small town just outside Ocean City, and well worth a visit. Great old looking town with nice buildings, shops, restaurants, and small town feel that takes you away from the ocean vacation town hustle and bustle ;)
Mrs. Krach got to shop, and I got to photograph some neat architecture ... one of those to follow.
I've resisted taking dandelions since they are so prevalent everywhere. As with all resolutions, I broke it. These were such "fat" and large dandelions, that I decided to take a few shots :)
today i was so surprised and happy about the first butterflies of 2015 .
So...sorry...today I add no architecture or urban shot on flickr. Today I add my feelings :-)
I went to Green Spring Gardens last month hoping to see hummingbirds. I only saw a couple, but I had no problems finding the Purple Martins, several of them were hanging out together.
The hummingbirds are here:
Blue Star Spring is located in Upper Geyser Basin, the same geyser basin that is home to the much-loved Old Faithful Geyser. Upper Geyser Basin has the highest concentration of geothermal features within Yellowstone National Park.
The temperature of the spring is 192°F (88 C). The water is super hot and we can see the steam as well. Dimensions are 9x10 feet, depth is 6 feet. It received its name from the star-like sinter formation around the edge of the pool. Extensive ledges have formed three to four feet over the crater, creating an illusion of a small spring. The ornate scalloped border of the ledge also extends along the overflow channel.

Today was such a gloriously warm day that I spent almost all of it outside, wandering in the trees and enjoying the feeling of wearing just a shirt and shorts, not even shoes. Spring is finally (hopefully) here and I'm excited about the next few months ahead. I laid in this field of grass and listened to Fleet Foxes, a group of deer trottled by and didn't even notice that I was there....
