#368 - Honeysuckle leaves in the rain

We have just been up to the grey North for the weekend. It didn't rain but we drove through thick clouds of mist every morning. Last week, driving back up country from Somerset, I mourned the sea and the green hills as we entered the city, but this week, we drove down and the skies lightened the further south we got. We arrived home as the sun did that last flare it does, just before sinking. Everything lit up for a few minutes... it made me glad to be home. 

And Spring is truly here now. Even last week, while it was wet, it was clear that every tree was about to burst into green. Walking down a dull alley, under my umbrella, I spotted these flower-like leaf buds creeping over a garden wall.
