Now Its Feels Like Spring

This winter was long and it feels like it lasted forever. But now we had our first 80 degree day and the flowers are finally blooming! Its time to get out and enjoy life!

I plan on getting out to the park on a daily basis and watching the kids play baseball and soccer. Its where I can get exercise and also find smiles... I love the innocence of children and enjoy very much seeing them happy just exploring something new that life has to offer them!

I hope everyone has a terrific day and rest of the week!

That really is a beautiful view... I love how all the colors of flowers go together... and the golf course is awesome!

Beautiful. The colors look stunning.

thank you very much @steemshiro! I agree completely with you that its a beautiful sight! :)

you are most welcome

Wow, very nice picture.I love the spring most.

Yes me too.. and thank you very much @nahid05!

how are you my friend. are you ok, I heard what happened and it pisses me off. those are very beautiful flowers also. I love spring and fall

I'm good Brian! Thanks for asking and I'm happy to be focused on my friends! ;) I appreciate you and Lynn always and she said you two were going to get out today or tomorrow (not sure when I saw her message) and enjoy the wonderful beauty of your surroundings... I am all for that! And I hope you both have a blat! Seeing those awesome flowers and feeling the 80 degree heat again reminded me of how awesome nature can be... I agree with you completely, Spring and Fall are both my favorites! ;)

I hope you have a fantastic day tomorrow and weekend too! You both deserve it! :D

Lynn said this is not you..........lol.....you seem sad and actually I am not out at all. I guess you did not see lynns post. How is your Mom BTW. Youe real friend Brian

sometimes the messages get crossed and I forget which was in front of the other. I have been in and out the last 3 days as I had a water heater break and trying to contain the damage. I did see Lynn's post, but I think it was after this comment. And my Mom is good, we went to the movies yesterday and looking forward to Sunday dinner tomorrow :).. And yes, I'm happy to see my real friend Brian anytime! :D

Hey And Thank you my brother. And yes to mr you are a brother in arms. If you read my last blog and can guide me on withdraw as I need meds badly and our bank card was skimmed here and the account I can access is empty lol. Please advise if you know anyone or if you know how to withdraw. Thanks and hope I am noe being a pest just stuck

I will check it out and see who I know that can do it... We will get you taken care of! How much were you planning on withdrawing so that I can ask around?

i was thinking I have 50 sbd in savings and i think its worth about 150 externally right

yes... ok I will see what I can do... do you have access to paypal or a us bank?

I'm glad someone's having 80 degree weather somewhere. When I came out to my office this morning it was 39 degrees. I think the sun came out for a while during the afternoon and it got up to about 58. Then it rained. Again. :)

But the cherry trees have blossomed and the tulips are starting to grow, and the grass is a little taller, so I guess there's some progress here.

It looks like there's a netting or fencing or something between the flower bed and the greenway behind it. Looks like she lives off of a park or a golf course of some kind.

Yes I know the feeling well. Today is the first day it really felt like spring... All the other days it got a little warmer during the day, but still got cold at night so it kinda cancelled it out. I have been looking forward to this spring a lot, it has taken awhile but hopefully now is here to say for at least a month.

That's the screen from her porch that you are seeing... She was taking the pick from inside looking out over the golf course. She lives on the edge of number 17 green. It really is a nice view she has... And you can't really tell from that picture, but it is a steep hill that those flowers are on... It makes it fun when I do the mulch every year, a nice workout for sure!

Wow! The spring is here. I can feel it. It's gonna be awese

Agree... today was the first day I felt it! :)

What a beautiful photo Dave; I have such fond memories of growing up, sitting on my grandparents porch and watching life go by. You mom must be so happy to be able to get outside and enjoy those beautiful plants she has there. And good for you to get out from in front of a computer screen and enjoy the nice weather that has finally arrived :)

Thank you very much @lynncoyle1 :) ... And that is a cool vision of being a kid watching with your grandparents... I think they were probably watching you more though (now that I'm older I think I appreciate things more).. And yes she does love her plants... And guess who gets to spread the mulch every year? (this guy) :P

And yes even though its not the beach (really awesome that you have that), it is nice to get out a little and sniff some fresh air! ;)

ps... I didn't get your permission, but I'm hoping the Queen didn't mind :D

As we get older, we really do learn to appreciate what's important in life; we all thought we were so darn smart in our 20's but really, we knew absolutely nothing ;)

Take it from this farmgirl, it's good for you to get a little dirt under your nails sometimes ! And you're such a good son, I'm sure she appreciates it very much...I bet she's right there with you giving all kinds of direction too :)

You never need the Queen's permission to get out and enjoy life's beauty!! In fact this week, I've decided to cut back my time here and live more outside and with Brian in general. Steemit will always be here and I need to find a happy medium. Glen can continue writing novels and keeping the crown!

It's nice to see you write a post that is non-steemit related by the way.

I know... isn't that the truth! :P ... and haha you got that right.. My mom loves giving "directions" ... that's why its good that we live in 2 separate houses... Great to visit, but neither of us could stand each other if we lived under one roof :P ... :)

Yes I think that is great that you and Brian get out and enjoy all the wonderful pleasures of your area... And of course, steemit will be here and more importantly your friends will be here (no matter how long you decide to chill out)... That's what I love about steemit is the connections and the friendships I've made... All the other things are just ways to make those connections, but the bottom line is I'm here for people!

I'm glad you noticed ;) ... You are one smart cookie!

Kids aren't supposed to live with their parents after a certain time, they drive each other crazy...it's nature's way of making sure we all eventually leave home :)

Brian is certainly my priority, but I do feel a priority to my friends here, like you, not necessarily steemit so to speak. I know you understand what I'm saying.

hahaha nice! smart cookie; of course I noticed...that's me :)

I know ;)

Aw we still have snow in NW PA. I want 80 degrees and sun! I'm so tired of this cold. Enjoy!!

lol... I have been in that situation for months... It finally happened here in NC... Maybe it will head up your way tonight ;)

That looks very nice.. :) :) Flowers are in bloom. If only we have spring in the Philippines, that'd really be my most favorite season because I love to see flowers like that. :)

Yes they are pretty, lots of flowers everywhere here... I take it you don't live in benquet! I think they have flowers too :P ... One thing that you all have that I love, is the beautiful beaches everywhere!

Oh yeah, we do have flowers out here still. :) :) Especially in Zamboanga. :D
And yes!! We do have a lot of beautiful beaches out here. You should come and visit the Philippines one day. It is more fun in the Philippines. HAHAHA :D

lol... I have heard that... Fun is how life should be @creyestxsa94 :P

And I love the Philippines, definitely want to get back there someday!

yup. Haha :D That's our tag line. lol :D Ohh, you've been to the Philippines before??

Yes I have been there many times... I love it actually... People are awesome and love the beaches and the beautiful scenery... :)

Oh wow!!! REALLY? That's very nice. :) Me, i haven;t really gone out of the country travels yet. :D Maybe one day. HAHA :D

Yes and you have a beautiful country... and yes it is always nice to see other countries and cultures... Its an wonderful way to learn about life! ;)

Congratulations dear friend, I am so glad that the weather is improving for you, to be able to enjoy outdoor activities, it really is fantastic, both for adults and children! in my country there is mostly good weather and we can always enjoy the city, that you enjoy it

Awesome... What country are you in @melvadg? And yes I always enjoy going into the city myself! :)

I live in Venezuela, here we have good tropical weather, I live on the coast and we can enjoy the warmth of the beach, thanks for your kind commentary have a nice day :)

very cool... I have only been there once, I was in Margarite Island (spelling probably off) but it was an awesome time I had and loved the town and the people!

Margarita's great. I hope she comes back soon.

I agree... I miss her so! :P

Beautiful photos

thank you very much @napanuii! :)

nice garden !

Thank you @sinlg! Yes it is pretty (at least for a few weeks when everything is in full bloom!

what a beautiful and relaxing spot. It;s so nice when the sun comes out and spring gives up a chance to get back into the garden again - I have been itching to get to my yard and the weather is finally nice here too .. that's why I've been posting all those pics of us doing the yard - we are just so excited to work with our hands in the dirt again- I spent this particular beautiful day in Carmel - and it was so beautiful there - I just had to document my visit.. I look forward to more of your yard pics

I remember your garden and I think you are really going to create something beautiful... You just have that way about you, so I'm sure it will be really nice... Make sure to take lots of pics!

And yes it is a nice spot... They overlook number 17 and see not only the pretty flowers, they also see tons of cool animals!

Pretty picture!

Spring seems to be doing its very best to get a grip here, as well... it has been a very long, dark, rainy and cold winter here. My Human was actually out mowing the lawn yesterday... which is a SURE sign of spring!

=^..^=

hahaha... yes moving the lawn is a sign... I wish I had a human to mow my lawn.. You are so lucky @curatorcat :P lol

ha ha I just made a post about the spring is coming in Stockholm but I can see from your photo that your spring has come way much longer than mine, we have not got that much flowers and green leafs 🍃🌷

I'm going to check it out now! Yes they just came out of nowhere it seems... Spring was definitely late for us! But happy to see them now :)

wow awesome flowers..

I agree, very nice! thanks Joseph! I see you are doing well, keep it up!

Congratulations, dear friend, I am so happy that the weather is developed for you, be able to enjoy outdoor activities, it is really wonderful, both for adults and children! There are very good weather in my country
