blue

Despite the attention on spring, on St. Patrick’s, on longer days and brilliant sunshine, with the end of spring break I am inclined to regard the world in various shades of blue.

From a drive to Governor Nelson State Park, just north of Madison:



two minutes outside Madison, total quiet




from the north, looking toward the Capitol, the lake is ice-free




...though evidence of winter is there, along the shore




blue shadows on slushy trails
