Spring is Officially Here

I haven’t done much driving around for the last few days, so I was pleasantly surprised this morning when I saw that the Jacaranda trees are now in bloom.  There are several streets here that are lined with jacarandas and I always love driving through them because it makes things feel happy, pretty, and bright.  I know people who have them in their yards hate the mess the flowers make, but they are my favorite!

    How did I miss those? I was just out walking. I’ll have to pay more attention when I go out again. I love the jacarandas too!

    Ohmygosh, these trees are soooo beautiful!
    I don’t think I have ever seen them in bloom before.
    Just a magnificent sight. Wow!

    I should clarify that this is not actually a street here, I found this picture online and used it because it looks very similar to what we see here when the trees are in full bloom 🙂
