Spring Collage

Clockwise from upper left: storm clouds in March--you can see our little yellow house peeking through the trees at left, upper right; a spring pasture fire that escaped a neighbor's planned burn path,  but our ponds stopped the fire, lower right; trees along the "straightaway" in April, lower left; a May sunset reflected in the lake across the road from our house. 

Kansas is not necessarily known for its beauty, and I don't understand this. Case in point, the photos in the collage above. all taken within a mile of the little yellow house this spring.
