A few months ago, it would have been covered by snow and ice.
A few weeks ago, it would have been underwater.
But on Sunday morning the meadow at The Laurels was covered with grass -- and drying out in the bright sun.
That's where the Buck and Doe Trust had its annual Spring Fling brunch, which drew a crowd of hungry Unionville-ites, eager to eat, socialize and celebrate the work of the local conservation group.
The food was fantastic: pancakes, sausage, apple-cider doughnuts and strawberries and lots of coffee.
As always, it was great to watch all the dogs and kids running around, and this year it was a special treat to see the progress on the Hayes Clark and Mary Ann Pyle covered bridges, which are being restored. The roof of the Hayes Clark bridge is being redone, and the sunlight was filtering down on the guests.
We also got to meet some new Brandywine Conservancy staff members and heard a summary of the restoration work from contractor Frank Stroik.
