I'm jealous of your pink blooms! March is shy in my neck of the woods...she needs coercing.

And here I've been yelling at her to hurry up...

Wow, so incredibly beautiful. We are still covered with snow and ice here in Ohio. My husband and I are planning a trip to Portland, and this photo makes me all the more excited for it!

Fabulous. It's still a little gray here in Pittsburgh, but since March hit, I've felt a distinct difference. Maybe it's just because I know the worst is (hopefully) over.

Flowers and sunshine, here I come.

Woah! Still snow, ice and cold (or sort of) here in Alaska. I like to think that it is spring somewhere. (Ps: I gave the address of your blog to a friend who just broke her ankle and has to stay in bed. She loves your posts, it is a sweet occupation for her).
