What an inviting forest

The tamarack leaves are just coming out at Wagner Bog, South of Highway 16 on RR 270. It was raining this evening. We were there at 8:30, but the frogs weren't out yet. Spring, so heavy in the air, I just smiled disbelievingly. 

Ellen Munroe taught me to knit a moebius strip scarf and I finished it on the 1/2 hour drive out to the bog because Jim drove. There was a yellow bog flower blooming, a yellow clematis, a tiny pink flower, 2 white flowers, and a flower that looks like it was on a rosemary plant. I'm sure I can do better than that and I will find out their names shortly. 

Son was the only one smart enough to wear his rubber boots. It's quite wet in the bog....as you might expect.

My favourite part of The Wee Free Men is when Tiffany politely tells Rob Anybody when they will marry.
