The poppies are blooming along the freeways and roadways. Bright splotches of happy colors. Trees are in bloom. White, soft pink, mauve. I don't know which fruit trees show which blossoms, except I know the almonds are white. Oh, yes, and the tulip trees are in full bloom. Gorgeous! All these colors with a backdrop of evergreen trees and shrubs.

I noticed some wee, small leaf buds on many of the deciduous trees.

Clumps of yellow daisy-like flowers. I know the name, but can't call it right now. Also, a bush/hedge that is usually green has turned red. All that color!

The sky is clear, haze in the distance, so the snow covered mountains on the horizon are hidden. The breeze is coolish, but the sun is warm. It's an altogether lovely day.

God's world is a real work of art. I just wish humans would help Him keep it that way.

Shalom.
