Changing Seasons

Sunset On A Muddy Road
Ashfield, Massachusetts

In the country, somewhere between Winter and Spring is the 'Season of Mud'. A time when company is greeted with, "Nice to see you, take your shoes off!" and cries of, "I just washed that floor!" echo down the mountainside.

I am well familiar with the season of mud. It occurs a few times a year around here! :o)

Ha ha. Yes, so true. I'm always yelling both those things to James. I'm not sure how his shoes are always so much dirtier than mind.

I love the lighting in this picture and the beautiful sunset. The snow sitll looks so fluffy and pristine in most places.

Beautiful gorgeous pictures.

Your comments about mud rooms made me laugh. I could just hear my mother say that. I was a Forest Service kid and we lived way up in the mountains and she fought the mud.

That is a wonderful sunset even with snow in the picture. We have stopped freezing here so our snow is going away. The large amounts of snow in northtern Iowa is going to cause flooding with all of our rives here in the central part of the state.

Lovely! The transistion from winter to spring is always difficult, but when my kids were little I absolutely dreaded it. Now I can take it in stride and just enjoy the thought of spring coming.

Beautiful photograph Sunny and I just hear the other day someone say the it is the mud season...now I know what that means! I never thought I would say it but I bet you are glad for the "mud Season"...Spring can't be far off. Although I am going to miss your beautiful snow pictures.

This is a lovely evening scene, Sunny. I do remember those days of mud all over the floor and we didn't even live on a dirt road. Mud is just attracted to the soles of shoes.

It may be the season of mud, but you've captured a beautiful scene. The colors in the sky are amazing.
