Gray

Notice the little bit of green on the planks in the lower right quadrant.



These are shots of some random, unrelated structures that I decided to group together based on two common denominators.




Love the moss on the roof and the open door, sort of beseeching us to come inside.
(I didn't, in spite of the pleas.)




First, they're all slowly being absorbed by their environment.




This little shed in the woods has an adorable chimney.



Second, they're all rather drab and gray in color.







I've been feeling like I'm being absorbed by my environment  rather drab and gray myself here lately.

This too shall pass.

Who else is ready for spring?

Herondipity





Yesterday the weather was dreary and the temperature was bitterly cold.








On the way to visit a friend, I stopped in at one of my favorite public landings near Onemo.

Ordinarily it's just me, the dock, and a few boats.

But this time there was company.









Just as soon as my camera started to pay him any attention,

 Mr. Heron became agitated and flew off.







We are an introverted bunch here in Mathews.

Especially in the winter months.
