We have had an unbelievable amount of rain lately - even for the Pacific Northwest - and the temperatures have been cool, downright chilly. The past two days I have had to turn on the furnace to take the chill off the house and I sit here with a blanket over my lap - but tomorrow - tomorrow the sun returns and they are promising reporting saying predicting thinking that it will get up to 73 - and I sure hope so. So I'd like to show five wonderful things about our spring - this rain has surely been good for the plants - and when we've had a bit of sunshine it has been glorious.
1. Bees in flowers
2. Yellow lilies and Blue Bell Flowers
3. Trees in full leaf and sunshine above
4. Honeysuckle in full bloom - and wondrous scent
5. Boats sailing in the sunlit waters of Bellingham Bay
And a bonus photo of the moon on a clear night

Just so lovely, we are meant to get a lot of rain tomorrow, thats why all the washing is on the line today.
Beautiful shots! I am partial to the flowers, but I really love the sailboat! Thanks for sharing!
beautiful photos, I love the moon shot..my Mother in law turned here heat on a few times last week, she is on the west coast of france weather much like PNW..
You certainly live in a beautiful place JoAnn. I have been to Vancouver a couple of times and also spent a week on Vancouver Island. I love the area - the clarity of the light and the clear air. Lucky you.
Gorgeous photos of many of my personal favorite things. Love the yellow and blue flowers together!
Great photos! Love the honeysuckle and the sailboat!
Last week I turned the furnace on a couple times...this week it was the air conditioner. Crazy weather.
Such wonderful photos, JoAnn! I love them all, but am especially partial to the one with the bee on flower. And the scent of honeysuckle is indeed wondrous! :)
Beautiful photos, I love the bee. I wish we could average out our area's temperatures and both have more ideal climate.
Hello, thank you for leaving a lovely message on my blog. I will pop back later to read some more of yours! Xxx
I love every shot and I should live there...that's my kind of weather. Heat wave just starting here and ugh.
Beautiful pictures. I hope you get your warm temps. It finally got hot here but they say it won't last.
Wonderful shots! Love that bee bum and the sailboat photo is wonderful! Can't wait for some sunshine even with all the 'benefits'. xoxo
