it was sunny with blue skies on saturday.
the whole city comes alive when the sun is out. portland was smiling with all the momma's pushing babies in their strollers. dogs and runners on the streets. sun bathing on the open grassy parks. and frisbee galore.
even though i still feel crummy, i couldn't bear staying in bed and missing out on the goodness, so we took a drive around the city and into the hills.
while driving, we spied some blossoms appearing on some of the trees, and i was smitten with the pink amongst the grey city skyline.
it was glorious.
(i'm not even letting that fact that it was raining and cold again today get me down. days like saturday give me hope of what's to come.spring hurray soon!)
blossoms! blossoms already! and here it is snowing a mighty ton. yes a ton. i love your polaroids. and um i think it is a good plan with the book loan except the shipping to portland does not like that plan ha
ReplyDeleteI too am jealous of the blossoms!
ReplyDeleteWe woke up to snow yesterday. :(
I'm so ready for spring already!
snow?! yuck.
ReplyDeletethese blossoms aren't your typical spring time tree blossoms (you know.. popcorn popping on the apricot tree kind.) but they're still awesome nonetheless.
I love your pretty red sweater! It is so cute. I will send some spring your way if you promise to send me cool weather in the summer! xo
ReplyDeleteyour so pretty, kate.
ReplyDeletebeautiful! we had a super rainy weekend here, and i thought that was pretty beautiful too :)
ReplyDeleteYou look so winsome and happy, I can't help but smile, too :) I love days like that. I bet your spring is going to be beautiful in Portland. I can't wait to see more pictures! I love your sweater, too, by the way - cheery and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh, camera is a Nikon D200 - kind of old school now a days, but I still love it. I'm still a beginner, though - there is waaaayy to much to learn about that thing :) I love your polaroids! Have you ever shot with a Diana+???
you are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteyou look good in red :)
ReplyDeleteoh, gosh. sounds like a dream!
ReplyDeletewe are far from getting a peek of those pretty blossoms. it's still winter wonderland here in good ol beehive state.
i also love how eloquent you are. i'm sure i've said this a billion times, but i do. i wish i was eloquent as you.
