Spring Flings...at last!

Have you noticed?

Days are getting longer!

Nothing nicer than a Pacific Northwest Coast early Spring...

This month, Victoria will have its annual flower count!

On the Southern Gulf Islands & on Salt Spring Island, we enjoy a microclimate called "cool Mediterranean"...some describe it as the Hawaii of Canada! Not.

Winter is short, though, if it happens at all...more like a long late Fall or a lengthy early Spring...depends on one's point of view.

Still, with the longer days and the welcome renewed warmth in the sun, it's a time to unfurl like the trees...to breathe the softer air...ahh, Spring!

California Quail dash about, lambs in the fields, kayakers on their way to Chocolate Beach, orchards budding towards blossoms, Sunday sailing races underway, Valentine menus to tempt, early gardens planted...how about a picnic at Vesuvius Beach?

Enjoy!
