Spring is finally here!!! The long, dark days of winter are coming to a close! Don’t get me wrong. Snow can be a beautiful thing in its own, cold way. But when that snow melts down and starts rushing off the mountains…that’s what really makes me happy. It means that pretty soon it will be safe to resume all hiking, biking, and sports activities. It also means that allergy med sales will soon skyrocket, but you know, win some lose some.

To celebrate the coming of the end of winter along with the melting and eventual runoff of all the snow, we’ve put together this amazing collection of time lapse pictures of water in motion. Sometimes I feel like its best to let the pictures speak for themselves…and this is definitely one of those times. Enjoy!
