The Gods are smiling upon us......



Unlike our weather from eleven days ago, the snow has finally melted and the sun Gods are smiling down upon us…..


While we aren’t quite ready for beach wear and building castles in the sand…..


Our flowers haven’t fully popped up out of their winter slumber deep beneath the ground…..


One of us sure is happy to be able to roll about in the grass and sun….
Happy spring everyone!

Hello:
What a difference the sun makes to be sure! And, such a happy image of Dylan enjoying the great outdoors. Spring is absolutely our favourite time of year-so much promise without the trying heat of summer.Unfortunately, it is raining with us, so your sunny pictures have cheered us enormously!!

Isn't it wonderful!! Looks like Dylan approves!! Yesterday we hit near 80!! It was crazy..no one could belive it, of coures today its in the 40's dreary and raining..was I imagining yesterday, thankfully I grabbed my camera and snapped away in the late afternoon sunshine! So nice to see spring has sprung, we have all waited a long time!

What a lovely ode to the warmer weather that's slowly on its way. Yesterday was delightful - one barely needed a jacket. And although today is gray and rainy, I can see the buds poking their way through the ground.

The end...or is it the beginning?...at last in sight! Spring is like grown-up easter egg hunting. Surprises around every corner. Congratulations! Trish

Dylan looks so happy. I would love to just rub his tummy. I know we would be fast friends. Happy Sunshine. Mona
