Spring is Coming!

Last week, I posted a photo of my favorite place to sit.  One day, as I was reading, I looked out my window and saw this...

My ornamental plum trees  are in full bloom!
We are expecting some heavy rain tonight, so I really wanted to capture these beautiful blossoms before they are washed away.  Spring is definitely coming!

    So pretty. I don't think we'll be seeing any blooms for a while yet, but this certainly makes me look forward to them.

    I'm so envious of your pretty pink blooms. We won't see anything spring-like for several more weeks (maybe months). Thanks for the spring inspiration!!

    Have a fabulous weekend!

    That sure looks like spring to me! And what an idyllic spot to relax in solitude. LOVE the bursting tree!

    Wow, we certainly have nothing like that around these parts! Love your outdoor seating too:) A perfect place to relax and chat up neighbors.

    Heather,
    No such luck here yet but if the weather stays warm our trees and daffodils will be doing the same, can't wait! What a beautiful view you have out your window!
