Finally, spring's at work!
Endlich macht sich der Frühling an die Arbeit.
Colour explosion
Eine Explosion der Farben
Outside living has begun anew.
Das Leben findet wieder draußen statt.
And the first ice-cream of the season always tastes best.
Und das erste Eis der Saison schmeckt immer am besten.
Wow. We're still weeks away from anything like that. Got about 12 cm of snow yesterday and temperatures are running 5-10 degrees C below normal. No March flowers (or rides) this year.
ReplyDeleteNo flowers around here either. I'm still waiting for it to be above 0°F (-18°C) in the morning. No ground let alone anything green in sight...
ReplyDeleteWow as well! Gorgeous photos and the better weather will cause a lift in spirits and more 2-wheeled fun :-). It's quite dark here in the mornings, although still warm enough.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers Sonja, looks like your neck of the woods and Oregon are playing the Spring flower game, but ice cream already? brrrr. No different than hot tea in the summer I guess.
ReplyDeleteI love your new header pic too.
Looks like Spring has sprung in your neck of the woods! Some of the trees are budding here in Colorado and the Dogwood tree at the entrance to the neighborhood has flowered up....next serious snow fall will probably wipe the buds out
ReplyDeleteJaaaa....das Wetter kann so bleiben...Morgens ist´s noch sehr frisch, aber am Nachmittag nach der Schicht - herrlich mit dem Bike.
ReplyDeleteIhr seht gut aus - mit dem Eis...;D
I agree the first icecream is the best, just as the first ride of the season is exhilarating! Lovely to finally see blossoms. Our neighbourhood trees burst into bloom a few days ago. It was a never emding winter for us with snow off and on all winter. Bring on spring!
ReplyDeleteLovely flower pics. The ice cream made me smile. Spring may be a little dull around here. We had warm temps far too early and then snow. Many plants suffered. 😢
ReplyDeleteOh ja, Eis :-)
ReplyDeletemiss the magnolias over here. really loved that about spring in Vancouver.
