Day 92-April 2


I love Spring. It has nothing to do with flowers or mowing grass or anything else a lot of people associate with spring in the rest of the world. The one main thing that spring means in Alaska is the return of the light and on a sunny day it is so much more evident. This morning when I went upstairs to wake up the girls, I opened the curtains above Cadi's bed and was greeted by this sunrise at 7:00 am. Remember this is the same place that in December on a stormy day sometimes the streetlights don't go off all day. I love the longer days and the promise that the even longer days of summer are coming!

  1. That's the best part about spring for me too... the longer days.. although for us it's a lot slower.. and are days are never as short as yours! So I can really imagine it's a BIG deal for you! I'd love to experience an Alaskan Summer Day sometime.

  2. Interesting that the colors of the mountains are the same hues as the moonstone photo just below it. The mountain photos are always inspiring!
