Early BLooms, Missoula, Montana

If states were regarded as having a gender, Montana could be considered feminine if only because of the phrase, "It's a woman's prerogative to change her mind."  Last week, my viewfinder framed snow on my neighbor's rooftop. This week, spring has sprung full bore and toes in the flip-flops are no longer blue-hued! (It also means my forest hiking is limited until a super hot spell assures me the ticks are far away. Sigh. It's tough to be a wuss.)
