The remnants of Winter Storm Ezekiel in our backyard. For those nearby, I hope you were safe during the storm!
We lost power and internet for about 5 hours, but it was restored by 8 pm... Thank God!

Speaking of snow, this photo (below) taken in March from Winter Storm Scott won
First Place in the 24th Annual Skylands Scenic Beauty Photo Contest!

I came across this stick on a recent walk on the Paulinskill Trail -- The lichen on it reminded me of the spots on a fawn!

When Evan got home from a walk this morning, he saw what he thought was a worm crawling in our front yard.
Upon closer inspection, it was hundreds of what we've come to identify as a "swarming mass of larvae." Ewwwwww!!!!! (Click here for more info) By the time I took this video, they were crawling into the dirt.
