Spring At Last!

Today it finally feels like Spring outside. Yesterday was pretty good, too, but today you can sit in the shade and not feel like the breeze was just verging on chilly. Perfect weather. Not too hot to do a little work in the sun, not too cool to sit in the shade.

Mom came by today to hack on some overgrown vines with me while we chat. She mentioned that there was a California Poppy trying to climb up through the Western Redbud and Blue Elderberry out front.

When I went out to snap this photo, I noticed that the Clarkia were also going berzerk.

How berzerk are they? This is how tall they are (next to a 5' 6" Mom).

On the way back into the house I noticed that the Sulfur Buckwheat is also quite happy.

Finally! A wonderful Spring day!
