Spring has Sprung!


One of the nice things about living in the Valley (I know, and yes, I said "nice") is that we get to experience ALMOST four seasons. There is a mild but colder-than-the-coast winter, and there is a nice month or two of crunchy leaves in the Fall. There is also a TON of fruit and nut trees grown here, so in the spring I get to see avenues and roads of pretty blossoms! There is an orchard and a vineyard right next to our housing development, so I can see the seasonal transformation on a daily basis!
Good News: the blossoms smell SOO delicious up close.
The bad news: blossoms mean summer is on its way, which means the uncomfortable heat is right around the corner! NOOO! =( At least there will be delicious peaches/nectarines/plums/cherries to quench my thirst.
