trillium

spring sightings today at the arboretum included wood violets, trillium, some type of wild geranium, banana slugs {yes, more than one! and I officially have slug slime on the leg of my jeans for the first time this year...) and a big ole raccoon who caught sight of us too before he lumbered off into the woods in the opposite direction...

we didn't take jack with us today because he is still recovering from our trip to the river a few days ago. poor guy hurt his front leg- and aggravated his arthritis in his hips and back- and it would have been too much for him to walk with us in the woods today. hopefully he will be healed up and ready to go when we go back in a few days. it just isn't the same going to the arboretum without him. i miss his dogginess and wild abandon. there is no one like a dog to remind you of just how good life is.
