Out in my yard today… sunny clear blue sky, no wind, and a warm 58 degrees. I found these in my front yard a few days ago. I’m grateful for… good health, sunshine, and spring break!

Not a huge fan of either team, I found myself cheering for the Saints because it was their first appearance at the Super Bowl and I think that New Orleans as a city deserves something to really celebrate this year.
