Spring Vernal Equinox


The first sign of growth on the first day of spring.  How fitting!  Look at all the false rue anemone (Enemion biternatum) leaves starting to emerge from their winter nap!  This hardy plant is also one of the most beautiful!  I took a first day of spring hike on the Skunk River Trail today!  Well picking up trash, I explained to my friend that whenever I pick up trash from the woods I get rewarded!   Not 20 feet later, I found a unopened water bottle which I proceeded to guzzle down.  I had forgotten mine and was parched after 4 hours of hiking.  Pick up trash in nature, and look for your treasure!
