Kitsch

 

Williamsburg shops stock their shares and styles of kitsch. These appear to be Christmas leftovers.

Wheels

 

One of Colonial Williamsburg's ox carts is getting some refurbishing.

Buds

 

I don't want to give people the wrong impression. It's not like Williamsburg is now suddenly bursting with color. It's not. But there are definite signs that spring is on its way, my favorite season of the year.

Variable

After staring at bare branches for weeks and weeks now, it was pure joy to see trees beginning to bud, although I am concerned that it might still be a tad early. I checked my records, though, and saw where we've had similar temperatures before. But we've also had very cold temps. So I guess you would have to say our weather here in southeast Virginia is, in a word, "variable."
