Ok I know some will disagree about this. The world does have plenty of quibblers and pedants.
They're the ones who argue Spring's not here until September 1st or 21st or whenever. But I'm happy to take these flowers as proof that it's here now.
This sight always makes me happy.
This year it's even better because Spring's arrived even before most skiers have had their butts winched up the hill for the first time. Ha!
I guess it's one of the bright sides to global warming.

Ok, come 19 September things are not looking particularly Spring-like. But I sure enjoyed August.
