Springtime in my neighborhood is full of pinks, greens and yellows beginning in late March. Here’s a little Spring time mood for all of you. Has Spring sprung for you yet? If not, I hope these images will put a little ‘Spring’ in your heart today…
Daffodils are pushing though, cherry tree buds are noticeably awaiting their time to blossom. Vancouver in March is a glorious, yet still cold, month of the year. As one of the mildest cities in Canada, we are fortunate to embrace spring earlier than most Canadian cities. And while the blooms come early here, we also still have plenty of snow on our local mountains. we can take a short drive up and go snow shoeing if we so desire. We don’t so desire but we do enjoy a snow hike in regular hiking boots.
So let’s take a look at what I cooked up a few years ago to celebrate this spring season (coming soon to a city near you).
Who? Tell me WHO doesn’t love a floral dress in Spring?

March 4, 2021 at 11:44 amI love spring colors Lisa and they are all around me right now. Some trees are already laded with blossoms, others are losing them because of wild wind that chooses to blow them off too soon. The hillock that I see everyday from my living room is green and yellow. I have taken some lovely shots and would share them soon.
There was a time I would add spring sarees to my bursting wardrobe… no longer so!
Looking forward to some beach visits after we get our vaccinations but the queue is long!
Thanks for sharing a lovely poem.

March 4, 2021 at 4:46 pmYes, it bursts with color, very soon here. How nice you have a pretty tree out your window. Would love to see it. A spring saree sounds lovely. A beach visit sounds perfect and good luck with the immunization. We are not eligible just yet. We’re still immunizing seniors and essential workers. Maybe by July, they say. Fingers crossed.

March 4, 2021 at 9:48 amWhere I was living last year, the azaleas would be brilliant right now and the last of the camellias (which began blooming in November) would be putting on a show, as well as the dogwoods. But here, on the Blue Ridge, we have mud (no more ice and snow) and the daffodils are just sticking out their necks and testing the air.

March 4, 2021 at 4:44 pmSounds gorgeous, Jeff. Blue Ridge mountains have a different kind of beauty this time of year. I just saw crocuses up, today.
