To us, it is even more interesting to view the impact that social media has made on group events such as the ... http://atlanticphoto.com/blog/?p=192 After seemingly unending weeks of way below normal temperatures (for us, anyway) we thought we’d never see spring again! But last week it finally made its entrance here in High Point, NC. Spring here has a somewhat ethereal quality about it.
