A sure sign of spring in North Carolina, buttercups are bloomong in the pastures. They are beautiful, but cattle won’t eat them and they are basically noxious weeds.

Nothing Could Be Finer
I had to be in Chapel Hill to shoot a job (it’s just a short drive through the country from my home), and on the way to lunch, we took a few moments to walk through the arboretum and the main quad at the University of North Carolina. UNC is one of the prettiest university campuses in the country and is especially so in the Spring. I thought the Japanese Maples and the Florida Azaleas were particularly nice. Oh to be an undergrad again!
