Spring walks and Maypole dancing....


Things are finally greening up here in these mountains! We seem to wait for spring to arrive for such a long time but once it's really here it's pretty bloomin' glorious!  At Bel's school the kiddies celebrated with some maypole dancing and it was one of the cutest and most hilarious things I've seen for ages! Coordinating a largeish bunch of 4 and 5 year olds when there are ribbons and dancing involved is no easy feat. Miss Sabina, serenely patient as always, showed how it's done and amazingly encouraged them all in the same direction at the same time! They pulled it off beautifully and without turning into one huge, colourful tangle :)






 Silas and I joined the group on one of their nature walks down to Spring Creek, of course he slept through the whole thing and was completely oblivious to the little fan club gathering around his stroller at every stop :)
