Tunnel of Flora

Monday morning, I turned a corner on my route through the Arb and almost gasped at this gorgeous sight ahead of me:

Arb Path

Friday, this straightaway had been lined with more-or-less bare branches. Over the weekend, every tree, bush, and shrub - and a few flowers - had leafed out, turning the stretch into a beautiful green tunnel. Riding through this every morning and afternoon all spring, summer, and fall is going to be a nice little dollop of quality of life, as a friend of a friend used to say.


Forecast: Significant blowing and drifting, with the possibility of heavy accumulation in rural areas.
