Spring has always been my favorite season. My birthday is in the spring, I love that sudden burst of warm sunshine and flowers, the fragrant air and spring rains, especially after a long winter. Spring in sunny Southern California isn't quite the same; we don't really get distinct seasons. Here, I have to look for signs of spring, or even buy them.
- It's warm enough to go to the beach (although the water is still pretty cold)
- We trade our sweatshirts and shoes for shorts and flip-flops
- Daffodils at the store for a dollar a bunch
- Strawberries go on sale
- All things Easter: hunts, dresses, candy, baskets, Cadbury Mini Eggs
- We start getting visitors again -14 so far!
- Spring baseball
- fragrant Star Jasmin and flowering hedges
- we break out the sunscreen
- I get the urge to go on a road trip -next week!
Hope you're enjoying your spring wherever you are!

Ah...they joys of spring in a warm climate...so lovely!
Spring baseball!!!!!!! I have waited for so long to watch my beloved Yankees. I can forget about the nightmare that was last year and look to the future. MLB '08 is going to be great! Now, if I can just convince my wife.
Spring is trying to come, but we've had snow twice in the last week. I love star jasmine. Enjoy the scent for me!
I am not going to read your blog any more until we get spring here. It is sooo cold!!!
I guess I'll see what you mean when I escape the roller-coaster weather here and fly out there in a couple days!
Wow, I can't wait for Spring to come to New England. Just 2 months to go! (I wish I were kidding)
great pictures! I especially love the peep, except it makes me wish I'd stocked up. ::drool:: Spring keeps popping in, then leaving again here.
