The Perfect Spring Day

Spring is in full bloom here in South Carolina, and it is the kind of Spring that you dream about in the dead of winter. The trees are tinted a thousand shades of green and the sky is the storybook “Carolina Blue.” It is what I consider PERFECT weather: the nights are still cool, the days are warm with a breeze that carries fresh, clean, fragrant aromas of the season. Wild Dogwoods dot the forest and the trees are alive with the birds singing songs to their Creator. Bright yellow Eastern Swallowtail Butterflies are everywhere, riding the soft winds. Every year I still marvel at the rebirth of nature, which in turn gives me that same feeling.  Even if it is just for a moment, it is divine.
