The official start of Spring is still about six weeks away in the Northern Hemisphere. So for those of us in the snow belt, here's an image from the Spring 2020 archives to provide perhaps a bit of warmth in the interim.

At last the spring arrived to my part of Sweden. This week is the first week with normal temperatures for spring. It is a wonder walking the woods where everything seems to come alive.

Thank you for visiting!

The year has gone so fast (at least for me) and now as autumn sets in, I start to miss spring when all the blossoms are out and the freshness of a new season is so exhilarating. I came across this in all my photos and dedicate it to my favorite season gone too soon! Thanks for your faves and comments!

Not far from the home of the Curly Cows

lies Happyville, a small village deep in one of the southern counties of England. The very happy residents show their eccentricity in their houses, building them in unconventional shapes and painting them all with bright colours. Their only slight nod to normality is to plant highly fragranced blossom trees in the streets so that in Spring the air is full of the beautiful smell of fresh blossom and the sound of pollen-hungry bees.
