Those were the words that came to mind, as I started out on a walk today: “Wow, it’s just so green.”

After a couple of days of fairly steady spring rain, it was great to get out this morning. The rain had just stopped, and the water was still dropping off the trees on the path to Green Timbers Lake. In some places I actually needed a hood to keep dry.

Wet. But, I guess that’s why they call our area “the wet coast’, isn’t it. It’s also what keeps us so green, so we can’t complain.

The air was fairly warm, the light was perfect for photography and most folks were still just thinking about getting out. Perfect.
