I saw a butterfly!!!

That's it. Saw a butterfly when out riding today. Very happy. It means spring is coming. Need I say more?

I know! I wouldn't believe me either but I swear it's true! I don't imagine he's still alive after the rain/snow/hail that we got yesterday though. He was fluttering about, landing on snowbanks even.

Hahahh.. that's what popped into my head, too!!!

No, definitely haven't seen butterflies yet... not even a robin, although everybody around here seems to!

But..... the FLIES sure are back!

Well there you have it! If flies & bees are out than it's not so crazy to see a flutterby right?!?!?

I had a caterpillar in my hand on Saturday! We still have a bit of snow on the ground so it was really weird.
