Snowshoe hares might want to hold up on the color change a bit ;)
Spring decided to take its own break! We’ve got 9” of snow on the ground and it’s still coming down.

The snowshoe hares are changing fast now that the snow is gone and it’s warming up rapidly.
I love Paris. I’ve been lucky enough to be there many times over the years for both work and play, so the devastating fire at Notre Dame today was absolutely heartbreaking. I hope it will be rebuilt—maybe in my lifetime so I can go back for one more visit. Here are a couple of images from past visits.
2009. The first time I took my wife to Paris.
2015. A very early morning walk along the Seine.
2017. The last time we were there on a gorgeous spring day.
I’m always amazed at this time of year as the days get longer and all of a sudden, boom, it’s light out at 10pm and it comes as this big, wonderful surprise. We had an incredibly mild winter and early spring this year, but you still sit out on the deck on a night like this and think “we made it through another one”.
Looking west at Sleeping Lady.
and looking north towards the Alaska Range and Denali.
Mount Foraker, Hunter & Denali were spectacular this morning. We’ve had a nice long stretch of seeing the mountains every day.
