Sun clouds float across a mountaintop …

… oblivious to their beauty …

In spite of varied weather, we have been holding our temperatures over the last while and according to the environmental prognosticators, we are supposed to be in the 20s C (70s F) next week. Could be more whiplash weather so we will have to see!
In any case, the local marmots are out in full force and are looking awake and full of beans …

… a very good sign of more stable weather, at least as far as temperatures are concerned.

I spotted some opening buds …

… that really made my day …

and felt an overall sense of spring’s arrival. Lovely.
Happy Friday.
… just wait a bit!



Happy Spring! It officially started today. 🌸
I love how beautiful early spring can be …

… with its soft breezes …

… and warm sun that allows you to unzip your jacket and bask in the mellow comfort …

… before the harshness of high temperatures send us shade-scurrying to avoid the burning golden summer eye.
Despite our up and down weather, things are beginning to take on more of a springish look.

The sun is taking a more prominent place …

… and the carp seem to be past their winter torpor.

Good signs!
A jealous moon concedes the night The treetops chase the setting sun Dusky horizons soon take flight As stars awaken, one by one

… but that sunny weather has been replaced with this, unfortunately …

… looks almost like winter except that the temperature, thankfully, is about 10C (50F). It’s drizzly and overcast but at least there’s no snow. March is proving to be much more liony than lamby.
Happy Sunday.
Well, if you were in need of some differences in the weather and you were in our area yesterday, all you had to do was wait a bit! We saw all four seasons in about six hours.
I awoke to some of this …

… followed by buckets and buckets of this …

… and then a little of this …

… and then this.

March is definitely not boring.
Happy Friday.
There’s still a little snow on the mountaintops …

… and the sun definitely has that spring angle.

Happy Wednesday.
