my daily walks with the dog get more interesting in the spring because i get to watch him follow his nose from one newly released smell to the next. after a winter when all but a few scents have been frozen and buried beneath the snow, our walks are suddenly smelly again, and watching jack interact with this new world is like watching a blind person suddenly able to see. if i were to do the same, following my limited human nose from one spring scent to another, i might simply find myself drifting along an endless path of crabapple trees in blossom.
