It looks like spring here! Spring has never been my favorite season, probably since I grew up in Maine. Back home we have beautiful summers, gorgeous falls, winters that are silently serene (assuming you don't actually have to go outside!), but spring is mud season. That time of year when all the frozen dog turds defrost on your lawn and mix with the mud and it just stinks.

But here in southern California it has finally rained (well at least some rain) bringing amazing clouds (funny how you didn't know you missed something until you see it again) and flowers. I took a few photos of flowers in my garden in hopes of playing with the images in Photoshop eventually. And yes, I know I need a new camera...
