SPRING HAS ARRIVED

 POST # 591

View from Mt. Erie on Fidalgo Island (1273 'ASL)

Spring has finally arrived, and along with it, there have been some wonderfully sunny days lately, which is a welcome relief after the extended period of grey days.  As I write these words, the grey skies have returned, so it was good that we took advantage of the nice weather and headed up to the viewpoint(above), on Fidalgo Island.  This is the view looking south with Campbell Lake in the foreground and Skagit Sound to the south of it.   It was a beautiful spring day, with a magnificent view.

Another sign that spring is here, is the fact that the daffodils are now in bloom, soon to be followed by tulips.  Even Dora-dog is enjoying them.

It's always a good idea to get out for a walk, especially when the weather is cooperating, and so we wandered down to the local park to spend some precious time overlooking the water and the bridge.

Dora-dog was having a good day indeed, as you can tell from the expression upon her face.

It seems like that's about all I have to say for today, so I'll wrap this up, and with any luck, the clouds may clear off soon, and we can get back out there and enjoy the day.

grateful for every breath,

Paul
