It was farmer's market again last weekend and as I drove to it, I simply revelled in all the beauty of nature.  Spring is very much in evidence at last.  We've had a few warmer days and then more rain, so everything has bloomed.  The road we turn on to to go almost anywhere is beautiful at this time of year.  Someone thought ahead and planted several different types of trees, so we have an amazing array of colours walking its length.  There are the trees in blossom, with dark  or pale pink, or white blossom, then many shades of new green leaves, from acid green to vibrant 'grass' shades and some leaves which grow back in autumn shades of dark red and brown.  The verges are a mass of dandelions and daisies and small purple flowers which I don't recall noticing other years.  Just amazingly BEAUTIFUL!

I like spring.  So much hope for long warm days.  The world simply seems lighter, brighter and a nicer place to be.
