Walking

With the weather being nicer (some days!) I've taken to walking outside.  I love where I live because it's close to the city, but far enough out that there is quite a lot of land around me with animals and vegetation.

Saturday morning I went for a walk and saw these pussy-willows along the side of the road.



I'm still learning about taking pictures with my phone so it's not the best, but it brought back so many memories.


One of my Aunt's house backed up to a canal in Nampa and when we'd go over there we'd always pick the pussy-willows and color them.  I can recall many bouquets left for her when we were all done.

It was always a fun thing to pick these. I wanted to stop every time we'd see them along the road.  They were always so soft and fuzzy.  And something to make one smile. :-)
