Spring smells

   

    One of the enjoyable benefits of going out early in the morning in Spring for a run is that you get to experience the smells of Spring.   From the sweet smells of honeysuckle and other flowers to the earthy smells of fungus and rotting wood the Spring provides our sense of smell with a lesson on the diversity of nature.   With our heavy wooded areas in and around Columbia we have many places to experience these smells.  On this holiday weekend take time to enjoy this early morning experience that will all come to pass too soon.
