Spring has arrived in California
Mar 29th, 2010, 9:00pm
 
I am so happy Spring has finally arrived in California. Last week I went to the San Francisco Flower and Garden Show. This is my favorite season by far. If you have a chance, take a look at some of my floral cards.  Smiley Smiley Smiley

We are a diverse group, aren't we? It's early Autumn here in Australia but most days it's still over 28°C in South-East Queensland. Much better than the 33°C+ and over 90% humidity of summer! Smiley
 
Cheers,

Yeah ... I'm in New Port Richey, Florida, near the Gulf and we are coming out of the coldest winter since 1958!! When you are used to temps in the 90's and it starts getting down in to the 30's and 20's, we Floridians FREEZE!! Happy to say that we are now back up in high 70's now! I'm happy to see spring arrive also!

. . . and in this part of Maine we had the mildest winter (since I've lived here anyway).  Now it's just rain, rain and more rain . . . and I'm already surrounded by water!  just might float away.

Your flowers are lovely Rene! I have a real soft spot for florals Smiley
 
Spring is trying to 'spring' here in New York too, crocuses are done and now the daffodils are blooming. If only the rain would go away, we'll wave as we float on by you  Ernestine! Cheesy

Spring is such a lovely time of year.  Here in Central Texas my hyacinth and daffodils have finished blooming and now I have some very pretty tulips and of course the Texas bluebonnets!  We too have had a cold winter for Texas that is and last summer was very hot!

Yes, here in Central Texas the Indian Paintbrushes and Bluebonnets line the highways with their red, white and blue, like a living American Flag. We'll be getting some of those up pretty soon!

Spring has arrived in WA State as well. Blossoms on the apple trees and the peas are coming up in the garden. Lots of rain but we're use to that.  Wink

Well...here in Wisconsin we are looking at beautiful crocuses and we have buds on the daffodils finally. No rain this month at all ... which is strange. Temps finally in the 50s and 60s ... maybe near 70 soon!
 
Rene, your flowers are beautiful. I'm getting ready to start shooting my florals again soon.

It's absolutely amazing how spread out we are.  What a diverse group of artists!  Here in Idaho, it's raining today but green is peeking out all over and I'm looking forward to the crocus and daffodil displays of cheerful colors to warm the heart.
 
Happy Spring Everywhere!!

It's good to hear the weather reports and good to see such wonderful card sites around the globe.
 
I have reached my 2000 card goal and I still have more cards in here trying to get out into the world.
I know most of you feel the same way.  
 
I am in Minnesota and the weather is fine, very springlike, windy, sunny, changeable and today we made it into the 70s.
 
Happy Seasons, wherever you are!

Your Spring flower cards are so pretty Rene, beautiful cards and lovely flowers.  Here in SW Florida we are finally getting warmer weather. Yesterday is was again cold and rainy.  We never see greens lawns here in Florida this time of the year, however we have had so much rain all the lawns are green (I guess that's a good thing that happened with the bad weather)  Smile everyone, Spring is here for most of us.
