Unlike the eastern region of the United States, spring has sprung in California. Although odd and a bit worrisome to see during this time of year, the sight of fresh blooms are a welcoming reprieve from the dark winter days (Btw, don't forget to change your clocks on Sunday!). Hopefully these images will bring warmer moments to my east coast folks. But let's be honest, we desperately miss the rain in the west. I hope it will come again soon. However, in the meantime, let's take this opportunity to reacquaint ourselves with our neighborhoods. Yes, it's time to come out of hiding. Block parties, yard sales, play dates or whatever you love...do it! Until next time...
