Spotted Wintergreen


 I was blessed this morning.  I live in Southeastern Massachusetts. The temperature the last few days hovered around the freezing point.  Today I was walking the Southern New England Trunk Trail.  The trees are dead.  The ground is covered in dead leaves.  The predominant color is brown.  And what do my wandering eyes spy--greenery.  There among the dead brown leaves are dark green leaves.  They're Spotted Wintergreen.  Spotted Wintergreen have roots that stretch out looking for water.  And there they were--a few inches away--more leaves.  

It brought smiles to our faces.
