This frost-damaged magnolia is in the Japanese garden at University of Guelph Arboretum.

A river is my favourite metaphor for life. The Speed River through Guelph Ontario manifests more energy and outward focus than I normally feel, but this is my challenge. Speed River Journal explores topics related to creativity, community and social reconciliation with the environment. People are neither superior nor inferior to nature: we are part of it, and it is perilous to ignore.

Sad. But spring is here, and right now we are under a severe thunderstorm warning. Let’s hope Nature moderates for both of us.
Hi Alana. I posted this photo a few weeks ago. Like you, we had a long stretch of incredibly warm weather in March, then it turned cold. Hard frost destroyed all the magnolia blossoms like these. I have farm friends who worried what damage it would do to their fruit trees, but I haven’t yet heard the outcome. Keep safe.
