The Cherry Blossoms Are Coming...

I have felt and smelt spring during the past week. Hallelujah! And when the clocks go forward tonight and it's brighter at dinner time tomorrow? Who hoo!
I also have veg seedlings on the go, which reminds me that I'll be planting them in my yard soon enough.
Anyway, when thoughts of Spring enter my mind, mental images of the High Park cherry blossoms are never far behind.
If you anticipate the blooming beauties as much as I do, be sure to check out the High Park cherry blossom watch page.
According to the High Park Nature Centre, which hosts the page, "peak bloom" lasts about a week and in recent years has been as early as April 13th and as late as May 10th.
Let the countdown begin....
Cheers,
Vanessa
