Spring in Los Angeles

May 25, 2025

I used to create posts for spring blooms in the twin cities so I thought I would continue the tradition now that I’m in Los Angeles. As one can imagine, spring is quite different here. There are so many interesting and colorful flowers. Not only that, but the hills just north of where I live … More Spring in Los Angeles

Late spring, early summer

July 22, 2023

Greetings blogosphere! It’s that time of year to display scenes from the end of spring and the beginning of summer.

I love to watch the transformation of the wild black raspberries that grow abundantly along the … More Late spring, early summer

Early spring in the twin cities

May 20, 2023

It’s time again for me to create a post of many of the photos I’ve taken since spring arrived the first week of May. We had a few days in April with summer weather and the snowdrops bloomed!

June 20, 2020

Ready for another photo tour of what’s been blooming the past couple of weeks? Note: I started this about three weeks before I published it and now it’s summer! Better late than never though eh? While working from home (due to the pandemic) and ever since the weather got warm, I started a new walking … More Mid to late spring in the twin cities

Early spring blooms, pandemic version

May 16, 2020

I know, the pandemic has nothing to do with spring blooms but I felt that since this is the year of the pandemic, I could designate this year’s posts to it? Instead of the boring year like I do most of the time. Must think of more creative titles…. But back to the point of … More Early spring blooms, pandemic version
