The light at the end of the tunnel

I'm not a January person. I hate wishing my time away, but I'm glad its almost over. However one of the aspects about the month that I like is that the day light hours get measurably longer. After work, I now get about an hour and a half of daylight to play with.

So on my way home on Thursday I called for a walk around the grounds at the garden centre.
The fresh air, exercise and injection of colour perked me up no end.


And Mother Nature finished my stroll with a light show of her own.

It was the best one and a half hours of my day.

Twisted Firestarter

Last night was the first time this year that hubby and I ate outside. It was a lovely warm evening and we lit the fire pit to burn the logs that we had been drying from our pruning of a tree. I can't remember ever being able to sit outside for so long in March before.

We sat out until around 10pm. Its one of my favourite things to do.

Here's hoping for many more this year.
