Spring?
Brushing my teeth before the window, I noticed how hazy the horizon looked. Yesterday was so clear and sunny! And today, it looks as if we are covered in a thin veil of smoke. I had to stop brushing so I could look more closely. Squinting beyong the Live oaks, a patch of smoke caught my eye, lifting up between our lot and the one next door.
I spit into the sink and wipe my face.
"Damon, is this smoke?!"
He came into the room for a peek out the window, his toothpaste-breath blowing over the top of my head.
"Well, it looks like it. Wait..."
And we both realized what it was simultaneously: clouds of juniper pollen releasing into the wind.
I guess this means it's Spring already?

Lovely pictures. It would be nice if Spring came a little early this year...
