This Moment

{this moment} - A SouleMama Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see.

Festifools!

I've been looking forward to Festifools for weeks, not just because it brings bigger-than-life-sized community fun, but also because it welcomes April and the sense that spring has truly arrived. Huge handmade puppets wielded by children young and old parade up and down Main Street commemorating April Fools Day and the general wackiness that spring inspires in us all. The grim 40 degree rain/snow/sleet weather forecast did not dampen the spirit of the parade or our tenacity to participate. We headed downtown dressed for the squall, reassuring ourselves that "this weather is hardly bad at all." Happily, the weather broke, keeping humans and puppets mostly dry through the parade.

 I hope you're weekend included a bit of fun-spirited spring foolishness!
