I didn’t know that skunk cabbage created its own heat. Love learning new things.

How perfect today! The picture, the lesson and then Thoreau putting the icing on!

Nature teaches us many things. You may smell bad, but you can still be beautiful. I’m certain your discovery of the sprouting skunk cabbage was a welcomed sight.

Looks so much like a hosta variety! And it looks like it did its job of melting the snow! The green is so beautiful and water so clear!

Thank you for the skunk cabbage lesson. I didn’t know. And another quote-worth-keeping from Thoreau!
