    Everything is looking so beautiful!!! I know what you mean about one day making a big difference, this time of the year more blooms seem to have popped open every time you look outside.

    Oh boy! Spring is coming to so many people here, but not everyone. Now those who are not having Spring can enjoy....

    Donna S, Isn't a gentle rain wonderful??? When it rains my hubby cries and I say to him, "You can't have Spring without rain, so be happy." You have beautiful flowers.

    While the temperatures play cold and hot, the flowers have it figured out. They know when to bloom. Lovely garden Donna.
