I love the thought of random acts of kindness and don't even care if it may seem to some as a forced day of kindness like Valentines is a force day of love and Thanksgiving is a forced day to gorge yourself to the point of needing sweat pants.

My wife and I visited recently and I captured a few shots on my iPhone.

Today is "Water a Flower Day", as is every May 30th.  Why couldn't we have celebrated that holiday last week?  That's when my Wife left town for a week and left me in charge of the plants. While she was gone, I killed her Pansies! Today is a holiday that could have saved them.

The trees are budding. The flowers are blooming.  Spring is here! I was inspired to search for signs of spring in Fort Collins. My wife Jenny and I captured a few images.
