Written for RDP, where Martha asks us
to get creative with the word “harbor”.
Thanks, Martha! Here’s where the prompt took me.
We walked to the harbor yesterday; surprising to see everything was still quite frozen.
Maybe after last night’s rain and the forecasted warm-up for this weekend, the landscape will shed its winter coat.
Waiting for warm sun and a spring thaw.

It is a nice 81 degrees here. Been doing a little yard clean up this week. I do miss the snow (not living in it of course)

It’s magic! 🪄✨ hahaha!
We had a couple of days with temps in the 40s and some heavy rain so a lot of the snow melted. What’s remaining are the piles of snow after shoveling. Another week or so, and it should all be gone.

Yes, but a week or two of nice temps and sunshine, and it will start to warm up beautifully. Thanks, Esther.
