February 10th, 2006 by Kimberly

Before leaving for California for the weekend, I went out to photograph the very first of our spring bulbs, which have been luxuriating in the past few days of sunny weather.

    I love these pictures. These first harbingers of Spring are always so cheerful and welcome! I like the audience, too.
