The Crab Apples are out in full bloom now in Ottawa, and some of the streets are very pretty with the dense blossoms and bright colors (white and pink) of these spring flowering trees. I went out this morning to get a few photos before they disappeared for the season.
Spring 2021 Commencement Ceremonies were held on O'Brien Field on May 8, 2021, on the campus of Eastern Illinois University. (Dominic Baima)
we got 1/2" of snow this morning as the rain ended and the cold air moved in - not cold enough to keep the snow as the ground is now warm after 2 weeks of warm spring.
Awesome color in the sky this evening as the cool dry air drove the low clouds out - it was so windy that I had a hard time holding steady for this last light shot, not to mention, a bit cold (expecting +28F tonight).
so glad spring is finally upon us. saw a few of these starting to sprout in my yard and thought i would try and get some cool photos free lensing. never tried before and i like how this one turned out . Shot this with the canon 35mm f2 is lens
I took this photo near my town in Szeged, Hungary. Canola. The word "canola" is derived from "CAnadian Oil, Low Acid"
Just when you think spring has spring, back comes the wind and rain. I took this inbetween showers and hurricanes ;)

AMR (MedTrans) bought Springs Ambulance in 1997 and currently operates it as AMR Desert Cities.
Getting some crazy March weather here in Indiana. It is very cold today and chance of snow showers. Burr. Have a wonderful weekend.
Today we got a snow that didn't stick to the roads but it sure made things pretty. I was so happy it happened after the crocuses came up. These are ours, but are on the side of the road next to a local college. I had to stop and take a few shots:) I'm sure I looked pretty crazy out in the snow with my tripod and camera:)

Went to Yasukuni Shrine on Sunday morning to check-up on the cherry blossoms. They were just starting to bloom on a few trees so nothing too interesting yet. On the other hand I did catch these ladies walking by in some pretty spring kimono's against the backdrop of the shrine.
Stopped by Yoyogi during a long break at work today. Wow it was packed. We didn't get hanami last year because of the quake. I know I didn't give a rats arse about pink flowers at the time. Add to that a record breaking cold (and wet) winter, and people are out with a purpose this spring.
Some people made for nice pics, but others just got in the way jack'n up my crow-flow! Going back tomorrow.
The Mentone Springs Hotel was built in 1884 by Dr. Frank Caldwell from Pennsylvania. The physician was living in the home of John Mason, who had come from Iowa a decade earlier. When the hotel was finished but still lacking a name, Mason’s daughter, Alice, told of reading accounts of Queen Victoria’s visit to a place called Mentone in France. The news item had given the meaning of Mentone as "a musical mountain spring." She suggested that the same name be given to this spot where a rippling mountain spring flowed. Dr. Caldwell liked the idea and named his new Inn the Mentone Springs Hotel.
The Mentone Springs resort was widely advertised as one of the most healthful and attractive spots in the south during the season from June to October. Recreation available at the resort included swimming and fishing in the river. Tennis, bowling, croquet, billiards, box golf, dancing and a playground for children were all provided for guests. In addition, two springs on the hotel grounds, called Mineral Springs and Beauty Springs were believed to have strengthening and curative properties. Beauty Springs was reached by means of a shaded pathway, which led along the brink of the mountain for a distance of about 200 yards. Nearby Mineral Springs, sometimes called Loring Springs, was sheltered by a two-story pavilion overlooking Wills Valley, two thousand feet below.
Between 1918 and 1920 the property was sold several times and unfortunately, the effects of the depression made it impossible for the owners to maintain the hotel in a satisfactory condition to accommodate such large crowds. The Baptist assembly in 1931 was the last to meet at Mentone. The Mentone Springs Company leased the hotel to several different operators, none of which was able to achieve much success during this period and the hotel closed for several years. It was purchased July 4, 1950 by Ben Hammond of Rome, Georgia and opened to the public once again.
The Mentone Springs Hotel, Bed & Breakfast and Caldwell’s Restaurant is now owned and operated by Andy Talton who has worked hard in returning the Grand Ol’ Lady back to her glory days. He and members of his staff invite all to come and rest on the front porch; to enjoy her beauty and tradition.
The Mentone Springs Hotel is on the National Register of Historical Places and is the oldest hotel in the state of Alabama.

44 - Our Daily Challenge - "In the air":
Had no success with things literally in the air today, but definitely enjoyed spring in the air at the Dallas Arboretum. In fact, the air was also quite potent with the fragrance of spring. It was a wonderful afternoon with my sweet daughter and granddaughter. I'm afraid I don't know what kind of tree blossom this is. Maybe someone else can identify it for me. What a treat to spend an afternoon enjoying nature!
