Where Has Summer Gone?

Is it me, or is summer coming to a close? Today, the weather was cool, with cloud-filled skies....like a late autmn day. The only difference.....the trees still had their leaves.

Every year I watch for the signs of fall. I watch certain trees that are my first clues that summer is almost over. I call them my "trigger" trees. What are my trigger trees telling me you ask? That fall is just around the corner. Some trees are showing a hint of color, as I love the fall season. I think it may be my favorite season of them all. Everything it conjures up in my mind....harvest festivals, apple picking, cozy sweaters and fresh baked apple pies.....yum!

But, I am rushing the season just a bit....but I am sure looking forward to it.....I think the Tree Sprites feel the same way....

May Day

Happy May Day!

The first day of May.

In medieval England the chief feature of the celebration of May Day was the Maypole. This was decorated with flowers and streamers, and the loose ends of which were held by dancers, who encircled the pole, weaving intricate patterns as they passed each other in the dance......how fun would that be!!!

Big pastel billowing tulle tutus, and floral wreaths in your hair. You can almost feel the breeze on your face as you dance about, with pretty ribbons falling softly down your back.

I hope somewhere out there today, girls are doing just this.....Happy May Day!
