Ersatz Icicle Dangles from Branch

I stared at this for a long time wondering how it could be
Spring is here.
Officially.
Unseasonably cold
and you can see why
I wondered how this sight
could possibly be real.
Not!
But it made me wonder.
Yesterday I took Murphy for a walk after school. And it was about 37 degrees. Chilly but not freezing. I got down the street and saw this hanging from a tree branch.

Thanks for visiting the blog today. Comments are always nice to receive but just looking is great, too.
Are those pink buds on the trees real? Now that’s the important question! Where is spring? Don’t leave us hanging! What’s the story on the (fake?) icicle?

I think it’s an anomaly in the time-space continuum.Sounds good to me.

Ruth,
A mutual friend, Pat Nixon, has posted links to your photography in the past. Now I’ve just gone ahead and bookmarked your site so I can visit without being told to. I thoroughly enjoy your work.
