Spring has sprung in Saint Louie
Spring is arguably Saint Louis's finest season. Here are some pics from the build up to the burst of color we are currently enjoying.
Pre-spring - delivering Girl Scout Cookies - with sticks for trees in background, and thick coats against the chill.
This white dogwood is now blooming (located in about the middle-background of the prior frame).
Some pink dogwood flowering, by a recently planted tree in the front yard:
Much of the street gets in the act, with dogwoods stacking on each other as you walk along:

Happy spring to all.,..

I love flowers, spring really is the best after a long winter. The first few days seem like heaven.
I love dogwoods!! I was in North Carolina last weekend for a trail run and was surrounded by huge white/pink dogwoods .. seemed like I was in some fantasy land.
Looks like we are a few week behind you guys but with a week of heavy rain I think we will have fresh blooms soon. We just planted some new vines, hoping to get a jump on summer and cover more of the fence this year.
