The annual tulip festival at the Wooden Shoe Tulip farm in Woodburn is coming up the end of this month! I'll be there selling photos for two weekends in April - but here are some shots from years past!
Today the sun will cross directly over the equator. That moment is called the vernal equinox, when night and day are exactly the same length. In the southern hemisphere of the earth, it signals the beginning of Autumn. But here, in the Pacific Northwest of the US where I live, it is the first day of Spring - the welcoming of fresh starts and new birth. The beginning of the new Seasons.
