Psst . . . there’s something I think you should know: it’s spring.
Spring, my friends!
In honor of the occasion, I had grandiose plans–plans to meander about, camera in hand, and capture all the glorious signs of spring. Yeah, I’m not sure what I was thinking either. I do, after all, live in Idaho–where bare branches rest against a backdrop of blue sky; where temps rise to 50 degrees F and people start breaking out the shorts and sandals with socks. It’s not pretty, but it’s spring.
Oh well, at least I know these are on the way . . .
I’ve seen the evidence with my own eyes. Sure, at present they’re little more than splashes of green upon a canvas of dusty brown, but their reservation has been secured.
Let’s celebrate, shall we? Let’s drink libations accessorized with brightly colored umbrellas; let’s dream up our Spring wardrobe; let’s imagine enlivening our home with fresh flowers; let’s plan to meet for a picnic a few months from today. Because just like the flowers of my garden, they may not be visible now, but they most assuredly are on the way!
Oh but atleast you have green… I´m still waiting. Lovely photo 🙂
My recent post signs of spring
True enough. And thank you! 🙂
There are certainly flowers starting to bloom every where now. I'm glad I don't have allergies so I can enjoy them all
My recent post On waiting in line
How exciting! We have to look closely for ours–but I know the trees must be budding, because my allergies are picking up. I\’m beginning to look like a prize fighter with circles under my eyes. 🙂
I'm shocked at how quickly spring has sprung up this year!!
Welcome to Idaho, I hope everyone is enjoying the first snow of spring.
Can you stand it?! I, for one, cannot. Sigh.
