Springtime on the Gulf Coast

Welcome Spring!

Quietly, it came again . . .
So soft . . .I almost missed it.
When sunshine streamed through broken clouds
and dewdrops gently kissed it.
Sleepy still . . . but awake at last,
Oh how I've missed her singing.
When springtime fills my heart with joy_
Great happiness she's bringing!

First bloom of spring, the harbinger of good things to come

A lovely orchid grown by my husband who has the proverbial "green Thumb"

From the lunch cruise around Tampa Bay. This beautiful home is on the very tip of Harbor Island

The colors of springtime on the Gulf Coast


We understand that the Gulf waters are already beginning to warm up which means an early hurricane season this year


Spring and warm weather is already here, the trees are budding, flowers are blooming, and the air conditioner is running as I write this post. The colors are vivid, with new life and we are enjoying God's creation at its loveliest
