Spring

Today, I had to have my car out of the garage by 8 am this morning. That meant no usual Saturday morning sleep-in. It was a good day, although it started out a bit rough. Getting up early, than the girl at Tim Hortons not getting my order correct once again. I've come to expect it at that location. I just shake my head and go on. There were many good things today, so I decided to make another '3BT' entry:

3 beautiful things today:
1) The warmth of the 30 degree sun! Ahhhh! :)
2) The smell of white lilacs
3) Finding a few pairs of pants in the store that fit me well

This evening, I also enjoyed spending time with a friend. The weather was so nice out this evening that, instead of sitting in a coffee or tea shop for most of the evening like we usually do, we roamed around the neighbourhood south of 17th Ave until after dark and appreciated the quiet residential neighbourhood with beautiful houses. At one point, there was no curb cut, so we had to carefully maneuver the scooter off the curb as there was no room to turn around. We did stop in at a Starbucks but were not there long. That location had really neat orange comfy chairs with an odd shape. We sat on these chairs.

And, here are some signs of spring - from pictures I took this week:


Perspective looking down my street. The trees will become much more full of flowers in the next week or so.

Closer up of the tree.


Close Up of the flowers (what I call 'white lilacs')


... And signs of spring. The leaves are starting to open up on this shrub.
