Spring on the Lawlor homestead

The footbridge across our creek melted out of the ice today. Naturally I had to grab my camera and document this momentous occasion.

Ever since the creek started melting, a few weeks ago, it's been impossible to cross. (Well, not really impossible, but with rapidly moving water over ice of indeterminate depth, probably unwise.) I was delighted to get a chance to get reacquainted with the temporarily-inaccessible part of our property.
